Ed. The day after Minnesota Grand Master of the Year nominee Ben Ewers finished 2nd in the 65-69M category at the Hawaiian Ironman World Championships, he wrote this note to his son and daughter.

Only slept 4 hrs last night, mind and body still working. I survived this race better than any others, which I attribute to sound training (especially the heat training) and a good plan that recognized my shortcomings. My longest run going into the race was 11 miles, as my Achilles was a limiting factor. Today it feels no worse...

than the day following those 11 mile training runs. Definitely a positive for PRP therapy.
