Ice Age Trail 1000

On the afternoon of April 30 (Monday), Pat Heyn and I played hooky from work and went to Janesville to see how Jason was doing. This was Day 17 for him. He had another very productive day - over 50 miles again, I think - most of the time running into a stiff easterly head wind. (Photo's inside!)

Day 17, 52 miles today, 797 total miles

Staying in Whitewater tonight after stopping in the middle of Bowers Lake Road to the NE of Milton.

Today was a great day. It never got too hot and Timo Yanacheck and Pat Heyn showed up later in the day to run the last 4-5 hours with me. Robert Wehner did a super job getting me to eat and drink over 4000 calories again.

My day with Jason

(from Saturday, April 28, 2007)

I was waiting for Jason at 6:30 a.m. when he arrived with Tom Bunk at his starting point for the day. This was at the intersection of Hwys 113 and DL, just east of the Devils Lake segment. Tom and I were checking on the supplies in the back of the van when Jason started down the trail. My first lesson learned: Jason does not wait for anyone.

The weather was forecast as sunny and warm. Golden moving sun rays highlighted the glistening dew and the patchy fog over wetlands.
