He tried a 50 miler a few years ago. Lake Sonoma. DNF'd. This was back when he was small time and didn't have any subs, but he was already making injury excuses back then. He did the Speedgoat 50K before. Realized he wasn't going to be top 10, gave up and jogged it in. Whined about how hard the course was and said he'd never to it again.
