Driving allowed me to have the support during the race as I had everything I could possible need (except for a spare pair of legs) in the vehicle. We stayed at an Air BNB in Marquette, which was perfect! For a race of this magnitude, anything I could do to make race day a bit easier, I did. Got there 2 days in advance, slept in a comfy bed, had a spare bike to rob parts off of just in case, packed all my daily nutrition as well as race day nutrition.Carey Loweryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06181928167273488954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3116971363082010280.post-13609954557725863722017-10-03T11:46:09.781-04:002017-10-03T11:46:09.781-04:00Impressive!

I have heard others say this race has "no free trail."<br />If I had not signed up for the BBG100 out in Cali, I would have liked to have experienced the MG100.<br /><br />Also being from the south, can you comment on traveling to and from the race?<br />Drive (2days)? or Fly...<br />Also, did you camp or have other accommodations?<br /><br />The race times, and the DNF's just show how tough of a race this really is.<br />You should really be proude!<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3116971363082010280.post-84843171896469206792017-09-30T16:03:17.549-04:002017-09-30T16:03:17.549-04:00I thought I saw the video on the Marji Gesick 100 ...I thought I saw the video on the Marji Gesick 100 FB page.

I hope it has just enough growth to keep running sucessfully, but not so much as to kill it's under the radar midwest killer status. Btw, where did you find the video of Jeremiah Bishop HABing?
