31:17!

Lorie chewed up and spit out her first Badwater Ultramarathon, finishing eighth overall, fourth among women with a time of 31 hours, 17 minutes, just one minute behind Shanna Armstrong, from Texas. She did really well at night, making good use of cooler temperatures to turn on the gas. A few brief naps and some stops for a little body maintenance here and there were the only time munchers. She also took part in a research project that involved some medical procedures - very generous of her.

As of this moment, she's getting cleaned up after a nap for a meal of Mexican food with her crew in Lone Pine.

Wow. That's all there is left to say.
