Wow!  This one was a good one for me.  I just love everything about the Western States Endurance Run.  The Golden Hour is probably the greatest hour in ultra-running because of so many things.  All the winners a podium finishers are back to the track, sometimes 12 or more hours after their finish along with many spectators cheering on the runners in the final hour before the 30 hour cutoff.  The energy is palpable!  Jenn does not usually chase cutoffs.  She's typically a sub 20 hour finisher for most of her 9 other 100 mile races, even with a win or two, but June 24/25 was just not her day for being fast.  She had some issues that slowed her down but she got in under the wire and earned that buckle.  She's gotten more attention from this from any previous victory.  She is such a happy and positive person!  I think you'll enjoy.  @jennifer.stamandfinley
