- This is the second manned aid station, Lapland Road. The film crew was interviewing one of the 50 mile racers, Dan Threlkeld, who is a meteoroligist for KJRH Channel 2 in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Dan and I exchanged some e-mails before the race and he gave me lots of great information from people who had previously run Heartland. He was really nice and helpful. He did a cartwheel at the finish line when he finished! This was also his first ultra.
- More road......
- Still more road.....see the hill off in the distance? That is the Lapland Road Aid Station pictured above. It's a long way away, now.
- At the end of this road we turned left and entered a fairly flat part of the course. The halfway point was at the end of this flat portion.
