Well, this blog ended up a dud.
Shannon and I are already home and ready for bed, not even 13 hours into the race.
My decrepit legs left me in a deflated mood and I didn't try to document the the day like I had hoped.
Shannon also had a sub-par day, calling it quits after a measly 43 miles. She hadn't trained at all for this race, and still had a lingering knee pain from the marathon. So it was easy to talk her into dropping out and getting some Korean sizzling rice soup, a shower, and a warm bed.
Still it was great to see the amazing Connie Gardner, Cheryl Yanek, Valmir Nunes, and Jonathan Savage.
Crotan 24 is a great race log some serious miles, if you are in shape to do it. It very flat and easy, and well supported.
