25 Years ago (Sept 2001) - I only raced twice in this month, I was trying to recover from my Ultra-running exploits. The first race was the Pisgah Mountain 50km trail race in Chesterfield NH. Ben Nephew gave me grief for all the gels and water I was carrying (he was shirtless and carried nothing), but I was worried about a DNF after the disaster at the World 100 km. I took no chances, basically running the race alone in third place. I caught Leigh Schmidt at 26 miles but never saw Ben. I took second place in 3:56:11. Two weeks later I went to the always surprisingly fast Eliot Maine 5k (certified) and finished in 10th place with a 15:33 (4:55/9:58). 35 guys broke 17 minutes!
