LEADVILLE, Colo. - A little over a year after cutting off his arm to save his life during a solo hike in Utah, Aspen adventurer Aron Ralston has completed a grueling 100-mile race at over 10,000 feet elevation.

More than 400 runners began the Leadville Trail race before dawn on Saturday, racing through hail and lightning at times, but fewer than half officially completed the race. Some dropped out because of nausea and cramps and others weren't able to cross the finish line within the 30-hour time limit.

Ralston, an official finisher with a time of 29:43, said he got sick after eating an onion sandwich but continued running despite feeling nauseated.

OMG.
 
Not being satisfied with being really hard and really cool, he comes back to remind us that yes he is the coolest person on the planet

You just gave the theme for Fox's next reality series.

I don't mean to alarm you but you have dogs on your face
I would seriously buy a poster of this guy. Especially post-arm-loss. This guy is superman.

He applied a tourniquet and clambered out of the canyon. After a six-mile hike, he found tourists who flagged down a helicopter.

Since then he has learned to play the piano one-handed, climbed 14,000-foot-tall Colorado mountains alone and returned to skiing and mountain biking.


FREAK!!!

Finally bought a new PSP, but then pushed the demon onto someone else. Jesus.
