Thanks everyone for all your comments throughout the day. I have just put down the headphones and you all kept me going. I enjoyed my day with @bobkeroll and the boys, but of course, like you, I missed Paul. Now we go forward together.

[Spencer Punter @spencerpunter]

@PhilLiggett @bobkeroll Thank you both. We all miss Paul. Great job today under tough circumstances. You guys rocked.

Happy #CanadaDay to our West Coast! With the Rockies and over 600 provincial parks, it's no secret that British Columbia is an Instagram dream! And, they don't shy away from the spotlight, having hosted the 2010 Olympics, Expo86 and enough film crews to be dubbed Hollywood North.

Fun time working at the Duncan Canyon Aid Station with Quicksilver Running Club during Western States. Amazing run by @walmsley172 to win and set a new course record. I got a short clip… https://t.co/ufUQnBZDyn

[Spencer Punter @spencerpunter]

@SanFranciscoVC Congrats Phil! Saw you whiz by at Duncan Canyon AS. 3rd in your AG and another silver buckle is amazing.

AI and robotics-driven farming from @dcvc company @plentyfarms yields incredible kale and arugula and tasty Board meetings.

Ultra running is a difficult, often solitary, pursuit that is frequently met with questions such a “Why?” and “Are you crazy?” When you summit a high ridge at 5am with the sun rising and the crescent moon setting the answers are manifest.

[Spencer Punter @spencerpunter]

Love the swagger of the @CoconinoCowboy - cool promotion and gear-up for @wser. @squirrelsnutbut is great stuff - made a believer out of me last week #QuickSilver100k. https://t.co/2dxZqpBmlp

Highlight of 2018 #wtc50k: I see “the Legend” Gordy Ainsleigh at check in and got to chat with Gentleman Jim @walmsleyruns after the race. I should have asked Gordy if his horse was really hurt in ‘74 or if he just wanted to start the entire ultra running movement.
