Clint is the youngest member of the Ultra Baal-Out team, but that's what keeps us old guys challenged - young, strong, fast legs. His time in the U. S. Army gave him plenty of opportunities to run, but through the training for the MC200 he has run longer and further than ever before AND experienced some great running highs - along w blistered feet, chaffed nipples and Howard's magic potion drinks - all for the first time - yes the sign of a true runner!
He is serious about some running goals this year which include: run a sub 20 minute 5K, and finish a marathon - BUT let's keep our priorities straight, first he needs to run his six legs in the 4th rotation of the MC200 (total of 31.2 miles). What motivates Clint to keep running? it's an opportunity to pray, see the world in slow motion and of course hang out with some very inspiring teammates. I love this quote from Clint: "if you don't push your limits, they will push you, and with God there are no limits!"

Clint, Howard is coming on strong with his recent SECOND place finish in the Jenison 5k! 21:15 was probably his talking pace. This guy will be under 20 before you know it! What's he gonna do when he's 50 in November???
