Good job" Lol, It’s funny you mention that...in the small amount of training I did, I tried to carry my Osagian 67 lb aluminum and it nearly killed my back after just a mile. I thought carrying the aluminum would be like running with weights. Turns out it felt like running with a dagger shoved in my back. My composite solo felt a world lighter after running a mile with the aluminum tank though! Tony

Rich" Lol, how have you been Rich?! We’re going to have to get out for a paddle, wet some lines and catch up sometime. Maybe my loud feet are why I’ve never seen a moose, bear or wolf on the portage trails? They sure felt like 1 ton blocks at the end of that marathon... Tony

GopherAdventure	09/22/2019 04:40PM   Spent the weekend in Ely for the marathon, my two oldest ran in Dorothy Molter’s Root Beer run and I ran the Canoe Portage Marathon. Longest “portage” of my life...8390 rods. The kids had a great time at Whiteside Park and a special thanks goes out to the amazing people of Ely that volunteer to make this event awesome year after year. My yoke clamp failed on me at Mile 16 and a volunteer at the aid station supplied me with tape so I could make a quick fix and continue. Thank you to everyone for such a special weekend! Tony
