Brazil 135 Ultramarathon update

Ray came in yesterday, finishing one of the toughest races.  He was the first international runner and also the 5th place overall.  He did so in a time of 34:35:00.  Ray said this was an adventure and a great comeback from last years race.  He plans to come back next year with his sights on 1st place. 

This is indeed one of the toughest races and a wonderful way to see the Brazilian countryside with several small towns in between.  As a crew we helped Ray the best we could while over coming many obstacles.  These obstacles would have been difficult to overcome with out the help of our crew member and translator, Mario Brito. 

We are still in Brazil and will be getting something posted as soon as we can.  

Thank you
