FINISH LINE!!!
LOTOJA (Logan to Jackson)
206 Miles
3 States
1 Day
10 Hours 35 Minutes
I am so proud of Camille, as is her husband,
Dr. David Brinton - Sports Medicine M.D., trainer extraordinaire and
King of the Mountain himself!
9 hours 47 minutes
We were so happy to be the "Support Crew", even though we missed Camille in Preston. (So Sorry!)
Luckily we made it to Montpelier with only seconds to spare before she came flying into the "Feeding Station". Then we were off to make it to Afton, Alpine and finally the finish line in the shadow of the beautiful Teton Range. The entire race was a dauntingly hard, uphill climb,
over mountain after mountain.
Well done, Dave and Camille.
"I doubt if there is any American with any of his country's history in his blood who is not excited at the crossing of a range. We have been a pass-surmounting people, fascinated by that newness on the other side, that land vaguely realizing westward. We have misted our eyes with far-looking and stretched our minds on the high points of the continent. Like the bear who went over the mountain, we have got these crossings in our itchy bones, and perhaps always will have. The other side of the mountain is plenty to see, even if we have seen it before."
Wallace Stegner, West
