60 hours of running, through three nights, on 30min of sleep. (I hope no kids are watching: don't try this at home.)
I am not authorized to pass this on, but I will anyway: Mike says he realized only last night how selfish his endeavor was, and how heavily he was leaning on his friends to help him make it. Unlike Rex (above), I wasn't one of those who trudged through the darkness with him, 10 hours per night, through pouring rain, and so I can't speak for the guys and gals who really helped, but I believe I can say with confidence: no problem, Mike, I know you'd do the same for any of us. Not that I believe that anyone will ever be so stupid to try this again!

Mike: Congrats, happy belated birthday, and.... you're nuts. But in a good way of course. Hope you got like a free T shirt, or some kinda cool memento for that. Some new 'gators perhaps? What an accomplishment. I came out Sunday morning at Makiki but never saw you, just the 'smokin trails.... best, Jan

What's really amazing is that he still had the strength to hold up that telephone pole after his run!
Congrats and Happy B-Day Mike!

I'm sure he'll come up with something even stupider than this....ha ha. I noticed that while we all thought he was nuts, no one doubted that he could do this. I find that......interestingly disturbing LOL. Ah, Mikey, what will you do next? A HURT loop everyday for 61 consecutive days?

Mike:
I admire your courage to set an incredible goal and determination to complete it! Sorry I was not able to make it out there. I mailed a donation to your house. Congratulations on your accomplishment!

Mike,
I said it on the trail (after not helping very much)...Inspiring...you are a ROCK STAR!
No selfishness in this endeavor. Ohana = HURT.
