Received the following note from Rev. Elizabeth:
"Two Fairfax Families, the Pfansteils (father, mother, son Joel) and the Aksdahls--Becky and Harold-- were crew members for Jackie Simonsen who ran the 135 mile Death Valley race July 10-13. I assume they will be back in town over the weekend, and might have some interesting things to say. It isn't everybody who gets a chance to support an athlete in an extreme sport. Joel, at one point, ran with Jackie as her pacer (keep her spirits and motivation up) and received kudos from an interviewer on the website (http://www.badwater.com).
Emily Wills, our own local Fairfax Reporter for the St. Albans Messenger wrote a nice front page article that you can read if you would like at:

Have a great day,
