Ultra Man
Dale sent this around at work: a great video bit from the Santa Rosa Press Democrat about Bill Bradley, a local man who’s training for a 100-mile foot race along the Iditarod course in the middle of winter.
The accompanying article, Beyond the Limit, has more choice bits.
When told Bradley planned to train inside a meat locker or some frozen compartment at a grocery store, Wade thought that environment wouldn’t produce optimal results.
“He would do better,” Wade said, “if he went out to the beach and pulled a sled. This race really tests the calves.”
So when Bradley heard what Wade said, he grabbed a sled and started dragging it across Doran Beach. Ain’t no sled too heavy. Ain’t no idea too goofy-hard.
