Thomas Armbruster

Thomas R. Armbruster, Jr., 37, Atlanta, GA.
Profession: Analyst.
Number of Barkley starts: This will be my first.
Why are you running the Barkley? The idea of running
the Barkley Marathons represents so many things for me; it is an
exploration of my limits, it is an unattainable goal, and because so
many others are afraid of it.
Your predicted finish results: I hate this question. The dreamer in me
says 3 loops. The realist says 1 loop. I will toe the line at the
Yellow Gate with one goal in mind, to not stop until I am told I can no
longer continue. Actual results: R.T.C. (Refused To Continue) @ 12:40 into the race.
