Gary is now able to sit up and drink water. He's on morphine for the pain and is aware of what happened to him but cannot remember the accident itself. He may be transferred out of the ICU by tomorrow, and when it's possible, eventually transferred to Huntington Memorial in Pasadena.
Reportedly he is getting to be "Gary" again ... in other words, a P.I.T.A.
We couldn't be happier.

Dear Pam & Gary,
Robert & I were sooo happy to hear that Gary was awake. Gary, If you can do Badwater on a weekend then be at running club that Wednesday and actually run, and... be RD and organizing a major race all at the same time, you must have an iron will & constitution. (and /or just be plain crazy) Pam & Gary,draw on those great qualities you both possess to pull through this.
You both have touched so many people through your love and dedication to the sport of running.
Stay strong
Much love and prayers

Never heard anyone call Gary some sort of bread before but (or is it butt) pita bread discribes him very well. We'll call him the bread man from now on.
Glad to see he's doing well.

Awesome news! The whole community is behind, and the recovery is not a miracle but a testament of how tough and great you are!

My heart goes out to you both at this time. From what I've seen (and heard) from Gary in the short time that I've known him, I have no doubt that his strong will and zest for... well everything will ensure a speedy recovery!
Take care.
Sincerely,

YAY!!! :) :) :)
It is wonderful that Gary is on his way to recovery. I know with out a shadow of a doubt, Gary will be back out there running no matter what it takes. He is one of those rare athletes. Pam, Gary is very lucky to have you in his life. This will end up being, another amazing Gary tale.
My Prayers are with both of you.

So glad to hear Gary's on the trail to recovery. What else would you expect from an ultrarunner. I'm so happy for him, his family, and all of us that look forward to seeing him well and strong again.
Gary...You're the Man! See you soon!
