she did it! 22hr 47min 19secs. 100.2 mi, about 15,000' of climbing and over 22,000' of descending. from about 33 degrees at 5am in Squaw Valley to the upper 90s in the lower canyons outside of Auburn. Helen rocked, her race went just about according to plan, with the exception of just some blisters on her feet. 13th woman, and 58th out of 271 overall finishers.
