It is NOT the Critic who Counts; NOT the Man who Points out how the Strong Man Stumbles or Made, or where the Doer of Deeds could have done them Better. The Credit Belongs to the Man who is actually in the Trail, whose Face is Marred by Dust and Sweat and Bloody Feet; who Strives Valiantly; who Errs, who Comes Short Again and Again, because there is NO Effort Without Error and Shortcoming; BUT who does actually Strive to do the Deeds; who knows great Enthusiasms, the great Devotions; who Spends himself in a Worthy cause; who at the best knows in the END the Triumph of high Achievement, and who at the Worst, if he Fails, at least Fails while Daring Greatly, so that his PLACE shall NEVER be with those Cold and Timid Souls who Neither know Victory nor Defeat!! The Triumph was Ours This Time, Thanks to Craig Tyhurst & Larry Long!! We Paid the Price But came Out Victorious!! My First 100Mile Race in the Time of 21:06:00, Finishing in Top 8 of a Great Field of Amazing Ultras at Prairie Spirit Trail 100Mile!!
