Fifth time is the charm for me, but finally got a buckle at Devil Dog this weekend. Feeling pretty sore and limping around today, but overall very pleased that I managed to avoid another DNF!

What were you eating?

How long did it take you?

“Small things earlier”, like what and how?

How long did you sleep when you stopped? And what kind of fucked dreams did you have?

Answer as many as you’d like, thanks for answering already, and congratulations again. Just astounding.

    I was eating wheat thins and Oreos on the trail, broth and ramen noodles in aid stations. I was not a fast finisher, came in 31st in 30.5hr.

    The biggest small thing is skin care. On a short race you can manage a little chaffing or a hot spot, for longer races taking the 3min to Vaseline or clean whatever is rubbing before it turns bloody is worth it

    I actually didn't sleep too well because my legs aches and I had an early flight home, maybe 7hr, don't remember any dreams.
