I missed it the first time you shared it. I was at Lean Horse, too, and dropped out at 65 miles (Harbach aid station), having gone off course at mile 35 due to a missing course marker. I thought THAT was a good chunk of bad luck, but it was NOTHING compared to what you went through. Belated condolences for all the hell you endured, especially at the hospital! I trust your next 100 will be a more positive experience and that you'll nail a PR at that race. I'll be tackling the Mother Road 100 this weekend myself and, with a little luck (which includes not going off course again), I'll be lucky enough to finish under 24 hours.Ric Munozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17757361847046350615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4821478631014104872.post-62639305506988346532010-09-17T10:51:08.208-07:002010-09-17T10:51:08.208-07:00Wow Chris, that sounds like a very tough experienc...Wow Chris, that sounds like a very tough experience. I hope you're fully healthy and can make another attempt at a 100. It's better that you decided to not continue rather than potentially really causing harm to yourself. You'll rally and knock one down soon.<br /><br />Be well.<br /><br />~Jeffrunn3rb0yhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06531382251040775540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4821478631014104872.post-37371809592330914612010-09-10T10:01:41.293-07:002010-09-10T10:01:41.293-07:00Chris,

Sounds like you weren't taking in enough salt. I didn't read anything about S-caps in your posting...just something to think about.John LaCroixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10579528507236934320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4821478631014104872.post-89101035562038681962010-09-08T20:26:20.528-07:002010-09-08T20:26:20.528-07:00Chris - A valiant attempt even if it didn't en...Chris - A valiant attempt even if it didn't end as planned. It sounds like you learned a lot and will be ready for next time. Coincidentally, my race at AC was nearly identical. I DNF'd at mile 49 with knee pain, even though I could walk fine and would have made all cut-offs. I had a "worst case scenario" in my mind, but what transpired was even worse and I just wasn't mentally prepared. <br /><br />Rest up and come back hungrier.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17695365862543446730noreply@blogger.com
