2009 H2H - 100km Ultra Marathon

2009 H2H (Haney to Harrison) - 100km Ultra Marathon. Thank you so much to Amanda and Doug for crewing me. Thanks to Mark and Colleen for keeping me fed before and after the race and for looking after the kids. Thank you to Simon and Christelle for looking after the Rockets soccer team, its a shame we had such bad weather both for soccer and the race.

Thank you to the Burnaby Running Room, especially Jackie, George, Derrick and Ants, for all their support before and during the race.

Thank you also to all the relay runners who cheered me on, you were great and made me push harder.

Bravo!

Inspirational.

Keep this video handy in case you are crazy enough to consider doing another one! I especially like 5:50-6:00

You obviously have some wonderful people supporting you and it must feel great to set such a challenging goal and be able to achieve it with friends and family cheering you all the way. Hope you're resting those weary legs - mine don't seem so sore now after watching you :)

Nik - congrats on your achievement. I ran H2H leg #6 with my relay team on Saturday, and I wondered after the race what the hell motivates the ultra runners to do it, especially in that kind of weather. I thought it would be awful to be out there for 11+ hrs, running alone for most of the day, battling the boredom of monotony. After watching this video, I think I understand now.

Great effort Nik. Great video !!

The special effects with the rain drops & splashes from the cars looked like it was really raining.
