Tower Tag Challenge - 8 Hours of Hill Climbing at Sleeping Giant State Park

Wanted to try to squeeze in one ultra this year.  I had been interested in this event last year and then frigged my right knee up, putting the kibosh on any further long distance plans last fall.  After another knee procedure in April, I wasn't sure how this was going to go.  Thankfully...very well!  I had no major issues with the knee, it was mostly my calves/thighs seizing up late in the race which would be the issue.  

But overall a very fun event.  Everyone was very supportive and I met some great people.  We got a bit of winter early in the day and then it mellowed out in the afternoon.  I ended doing 11 laps, more than I expected.  About 36 miles and 7000 feet of elevation gain.  I was very happy with my performance!
