Great report - you almost make me want to give it a go as well until I think how cold it can get up there. Well done though, especially after those health issues.

Congrats again on a great race, even when sick. Seeing you push the pace while leading the field out was very cool. You gave it everything you had on the day and should be very pleased.

Loved the report and pics! Congratulations on accomplishing another running adventure.
Re: Yukon Arctic Ultra Marathon 2012 - Race Report
I'm in awe that you pulled off that kind of race when you were sick.
My advice: Fire your coach. Well...unless you want to become as "loco" as he is
Well done David...looking forward to hearing about your next adventure!

Congrats, Strider!
Sucks that you were under the weather, though. Did you ever figure out why it was "only" 38K?

Seriously! He almost made it sound like something I'd want to do. Almost.
Dave, you continue to amaze me! I can't wait to read your report of the 100 miler next year!

Re: Yukon Arctic Ultra Marathon 2012 - Race Report
Knowing how rough you were feeling before the depature, I was beyond impressed when the Mrs posted the race outcome on FB. Truly incredible and inspiring
Re: Yukon Arctic Ultra Marathon 2012 - Race Report
Congrats - I'd say that's 'taking challenge on' rather than 'taking on the challenge' - and you kicked frosty butt!
