Team Everymantri runners Paul Shippey and Lori Lyons had a rough stage today with Shippey calling it quits on Hope Pass. A viral infection has plagued the Boulder runner since the start and he was forced to retire today. Lyons, who appears to have shaken off early altitude issues has found her stride and will continue the race.

I'm so sad for you both! How will you be able to continue? Thought it required two over the finish? Is there someone else in need of a partner as well?
