70 y.o. woman finishes Western States, 29:59:54

That's 6 seconds to spare on the 30 hour limit, and the course AG record. I'm thinking, "there's a 70+ record to break for a 100 mile ultra?" Story here.

Thanks Joe. So inspiring.

Even though I know I'll never do WS, I can do what I can do and that type of inspiration helps.

It was so incredible to watch. I loved that Rob Krar ran her in the last mile and gave her tips.
