Another race to consider?

I might make a trip this summer to see my brother, so I was looking for races in Washington and found what's billed as the toughest 50K in the state, the Grey Rock 50K. The photos make it look just a bit technical:

So many rocks, so many possible broken bones...

Steve, or should I say Hopalong Casualty (wink, wink),based on last year's "crashes" I would strongly recommend at least a helmet if you attempt this race. Ha ha! Actually, your crashes last year were a result of your weakened ankle from an early season mishap. If you do decide to do this race, for Pete's sake be careful! No more hip dislocations or broken fingers, please.
