PICTURES!!! =)

Ok, here's some pictures from the event. I was having computer issues last night so I just finished my post and went to bed. So, hopefully here's some pics....

 First, here's a pic of one of the FORGED shirts that I got. It's a little hard to read, but the red says FORGED, and it's in a metallic, almost foil-like, color. Very cool, and matches the HIC hat nicely I think.

 Saw this guy before the race and had to snap a picture. Thought that it was perfect, and it let me know that I wouldn't be finishing the race alone.

 A little swash-buckling sword fight to get the race started.

 After my rest at the summit, I strapped on my gear and got ready for the decent. Here I am with the summit clock getting ready to hit the down hill.

 My beautiful wife who met me at the finish line

 My pirate racing buddy, Elijah

 Some friends who also ran the race and met me for the after party.

Speaking of after party, here's the after race "recovery" meal. Lots of protein and car
