Awesome race, you were about a minute ahead of me.  That jaw kick must have been a nasty surprise.

I love your "wear socks" quote.  Wow that can get pretty nasty.  At Eagleman my friend had really bloody feet from going sockless but somehow he still had a great run.  I don't know how he does it.

Good job out there!
