short blog today...no cell reception or wireless in camp hail so i'm writing this on the road back to buena vista to pick the car up.
stage three is complete. we knew this could be a big day for us and we took advantage of the opportunity to put some distance between us and our competition. we pulled in front just over 3 miles into the run and ran the remaining 21 miles on our own. it was all about teamwork today..we had a great check point/hydration strategy that probably gained us 2 minutes over the 24 miles. mike was a stud...he worked his ass off today to make that strategy work, the guy is a beast. sounded like a beast today as well. he would let out a massive growl random times throughout the stage...had a little worried exactly what was going on in his head at those times but made we smile each time i heard the beast.
no doubt we are hurting units right now...i knew it was going to hurt but i wasn't sure exactly when it was going to hit. the thought of running again tomorrow morning makes my mind spin right now. it seems like an impossible task at this moment, but so did some of our second runs during our back to backs in training and somehow we managed to get it done.
see you back tomorrow
