Full report to come soon. Meanwhile, the Top 10 Moments from this Weekend:
- Successfully cramming 2 coolers, 4 camp chairs, 4 bags, 2 cases of water & snacks in the back of the EBV (Electric Blue Vibe) after boasting that I am a champion car-packer. Whew - didn't have to eat my words!
- Trying to explain why I can't eat a sandwich once it's been in a plastic sandwich bag but I can eat a sandwich made with bread that's been in a sandwich bag.
- Hiding the computer from the "dirty bastard thieves" in Bastrop.
- The 180-degree difference in how we ordered food on Friday night pre-race to how we ordered food on Saturday night post-race.
- POPSICLES!
- Seeing all our friends cheering us on at the finish line!
- Joining all our friends cheering the 50-milers at the finish line.
- "The Grind, the Wall, your tent, the finish..."
- "NINE MILES!"
- Crossing the finish line with new ultra runner Julie. She rocked it!!
