I'd be more impressed if you did the run.

I read the story and it sounds like a great personal triumph. I did notice that the movie did, at times, come across as one long commercial for both Lance and the race itself. Very curious that those who are not mountain bikers before seeing the movie would be drawn into the race - and end up competing- by the film. There were a few other stories I ran across where the same thing happened, I belive. I know a few long-time MTB-ers who are put off by the very same thing (the same "thing" that has drawn others on). Interseting...
