I wandered over here months ago from Staci's wild dogmushing blog, and you are some kinda mountain bike riding phenom! Love it! This is just plain crazy ..in a good way... I have bragged about the toughness of this race and its participants on my blog and I really appreciate your bravery and awesome story telling skills. Descriptions of the Iditarod as an ever changing "ghost trail" and the hairy-scary dip in the creek really took me there. The comfort of my Nor Cal cabin is all the more magical for having vicariously rode the Iditarod Invitational with you.

Every road trip I've been on since you began to train for this at some point I have the thought "Holy cow, that whole distance we just drove was like 200 miles and Jill and Geoff are going to go 350 miles! by their own power! in Alaska! in the winter!" I think you are the most determined person I have ever known. Way to step into and through all your fears and push yourself to your limit. Most of us will never know where our limit really is, you know that pretty clearly and its way past where you thought it was. Way to go, I'm so proud to be your friend.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-84895382014259967752008-03-03T14:30:00.000-07:002008-03-03T14:30:00.000-07:00Very cool....you should be proudVery cool....you should be proudlittlemikemackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13957237894182413164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-22681248087888383792008-03-03T13:24:00.000-07:002008-03-03T13:24:00.000-07:00Great job, Jill! - followed the whole way.

Congratulations on an outstanding adventure.<BR/><BR/>Also, kudos on your excellent judgement at the Rohn checkpoint. It would have been very tempting for many to press on too soon, being too swept up in the "heat" of the race. However, you did the smart thing and took the time to let your boots dry out so you wouldn't endanger yourself later down the trail. That illustrates the rare perfect combination of character and restraint (overall excellent judgement, really) that most of us lack. That had to be hard to do.<BR/><BR/>Congrats again, and I can't wait to read the trip report.<BR/><BR/>-FonkFonkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04504462046067745769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18615538.post-56781139446506778742008-03-02T23:45:00.000-07:002008-03-02T23:45:00.000-07:00Congratulations!
