Leadville Trail 100

Here we go- heading up to Leadville for Jeff's big race. Here is a link to the race webpage in case you would like more details. The short-and-sweet of it is that he will leave at 4am Saturday morning and attempt to run 100 miles through the mountains, up and over mountain passes. He has until 10am on Sunday to complete it, or he is done. His expected finish time is around 9am, but these types of things are hard to predict, a good portion of the people who attempt it will never finish.

I am going to try to post updates to facebook during the race, so consult fb if you are interested in how it is going. Good luck to us all- RUN JEFF RUN!!!

(to some people this is crazy, but for Jeff this is a long time dream of his. I am so proud of him for doing this, and cannot believe the strength and level of committment he has!)

Even though I think he is a bit nuts for doing the death run. I am very proud of his commitment and determination. And, I am very proud on Nicole and Lauren for the sacrifice they have made this last year to support Jeff in his training. Do the Kaiser family proud. GO JEFF GO! Never give up! Love ya all!
