Some follow up thoughts, things I want to remember, and how things look for Kettle 100.
I forgot to mention that I kept looking for the moon to rise during the race. I finally saw it as I was walking towards my tent after the race, behind some hazy clouds :)
I loved the jelly beans, and will try to incorporate them in to Kettle racing. I found that Jelly Bellys have 100 calories per 25 beans, that's a gel equivalent and the perfect size for a snack bag.
I need better sleeping gear! Cushy-er and warmer! I like having the tent for proximity, simplicity, and money saving so it's worth investing a bit.
I love ultraracing. I love night running.
I was remarkably fatigued Sunday after I woke up, only a hint at how tired I'll be after Kettle. The schedule disruption, energy expenditure, and overnight aspect are killer.
As for Kettle, I'm feeling good and looking ahead to a few more fine tunings of distance and jelly bean nutrition. :)
NUMERICS 13:15 hours of running
RUN 70 miles
BIKE COMMUTE 12.8
WALKIES 10.6
Most days I got my minimum of 15 mins of stretch and strength, but racing and traveling limited this.
