2008 Longest Day of Nelson Ledges 24 Hour Endurance Race

This past year’s 2008 running of the Longest Day of Nelson Ledges 24 hour endurance race was a challenge of a sort not previously experienced by the 5:01 team. I’ve chosen to chronicle this race in a bit of a different manner this year, hour by hour as recalled from log sheets, pictures, interviews after the race and my personal participation and audio overview, from monitoring the radio as Team Manager throughout the event. I hope you enjoy this account of our 2008 LD adventure.
