"FlatRock is my first ever ultra...it was an incredible experience; I learned a lot about myself, not just as a runner, but as a person and soul, as well. It was such a great feeling that I told myself I'd do three ultras in 2004 and it was FlatRock this year that helped me achieve that. This is such a great race, I plan on running it indefinitely, so I am setting a personal goal to run FlatRock for at least eight more consecutive years so I can reach the RD's standard and gain entry into the "Hall of Pain."
