I had a lot of fun helping out and being around the buzz. I got humbled for way too long by the main stage banner wall, but made up for it in blister on my knee and a little blood and sweat. Just like a real Leadville 100 experience should be. I got to see Kegan and wish him well, Floyd Landis, both were cool. All in all even though I wish I were toeing the line this year, I really enjoyed the crews I was assisting and the passion everywhere.
