Race Coverage / Special Feature - Everyone - What an adventure we all had in the Black Hills! Don't know where to begin really as the memories are plentiful and will likely forget to mention or thank someone, if I do I apologize. So while fresh and before the race report I need to thank some specific people who got me to the finish line literally! First and foremost my rock is my wife Renee who has supported me on this journey for the past 9 months. She also had the smile and cheer at the aid stations that I looked for, and who has always believed in me...even when I didn't, love you baby! My girls Jenna (12) and Olivia (8) are my little shining lights, who think I am a little crazy...I agree. My crew and mojo brothers (Novak, Sterg and Olson) who did things other men probably shouldn't do for each other, except for in an Ultra. They not only shared...

Minneman VII was a spectacular event. Perfect weather. 74-degree lake! Hot racing. A great social experience. Lots of words and photos to come...RESULTS

And stay tuned for Scott Penticoff's inspiring account of the grueling 100+ mile odyssey he and some close friends just finished. Seriously, this is an amazing story that will post on Sunday morning.

Race Coverage - It's always nice to pull off a win on the home course and the weather was perfect for racing this year, overcast, no wind, and temps in the 60s. I arrived about 6:30 to claim my spot in transition and pick up my race packet.
The swag was excellent as usual for this race, a long sleeve tech shirt, a pair of running socks, and to my surprise, a fancy Nathan race number belt. Not bad for a race that cost $35 to enter....

Minneman Preview - Three "Race of the Year" awards in its first six seasons. Whoa!
To say that Minneman isn't one of the premier racing experiences in our region is like saying that Kym Kardashian doesn't have a prominent keister.
It's a smallish event from the standpoints of size (450 participants) and distances (.3 - 13 - 3), but everything else about this race is Big Time. Staging and execution are first-class. Volunteers are numerous, skilled and enthusiastic. Post race and goodie bag amenities are abundant and totally cool.
Simply put, Minneman is a high quality event. And the good news is that there are still spots available. How many? We're not sure, so
