Congratulations on a job well done. You seemed stronger and more together than last year, perhaps practice makes perfect (grin)? Polly, once you’re on that podium it’s all worth it!

This race would be impossible without support. I am recovering slowly. It seems like a lot of fun now. Great to see all the dynafits and race skis/boots out there.

Helen Benson and Mary Stewart deserve TONS of kudos as well! They posted 14 laps on snowshoes and pressed on despite stomach issues. I didn't get to talk to them after the race, but I wanted to congratulate them on reaching their goals! I think it's just great that "the sisters" as we came to call them, stick together every year. They are always so friendly and nice to talk to along the way. And each year they get in more laps - nice work. Way to go ladies!

I hope your Chicago friends are indeed stunned to learn of your grunge cred, and to gain cred that while doing world class athletics instead of drinking coffee, now that has to be extra exceptional!
