Day 4,545—Thoughts on the Complete RRR—
I still need to proofread what I have written about the RRR before I post the complete edition. I recorded some video of the race, but much less than usual because almost as soon as it started, I felt behind and didn’t have time to record. I got some pictures that I liked. I would like to put together a short video to go with the write-up, but it isn’t fun to revisit a race like that. I was thinking more about it yesterday, and it probably has a lot to do with me choking occasionally as a soccer goalie and high school and college wrestler. It didn’t happen often, but it did happen. I feel like part of my strong reaction to this experience was that I wanted everyone to know that I didn’t choke; I did my best, and it didn’t work out. I trained for a lot of what I would be dealing with in the race, but not that late start time, and that is the only 100-mile race I have ever done that has started that late. I don’t know of any other races that have a similar start...
