I'll bet Lap 11 was a pretty wild three hours that you could never adequately explain with words (and shouldn't be able to) and that over time, the memory will be something that you wouldn't trade for anything.

Of course, with you being 50 that means we're competitors. <br />Hank Greerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15243840232233423724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3980421295592818922.post-55038666691722139582014-05-26T20:37:34.816-07:002014-05-26T20:37:34.816-07:00Awesome job Hank!

Then I checked the standings.Hank Greerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15243840232233423724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3980421295592818922.post-7593775446052927692014-05-26T13:52:12.341-07:002014-05-26T13:52:12.341-07:00Congratulations, Hank!

When I look at your lap times, I envision the 2:48 11th lap as pretty bigtime misery. Great job persevering.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing your preparations and actual race adventure with us - it's been a lot of fun watching you get ready for this and I've admired your systematic, all-in approach.<br /><br />Again, congratulations on a damn fine accomplishment.Pat Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05348722701872187949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3980421295592818922.post-3439435140318910282014-05-26T07:09:08.820-07:002014-05-26T07:09:08.820-07:00great job, old man!great job, old man!Wileydoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03318247350407124306noreply@blogger.com
