CLAIRE - After Stage 2

Today was very hot (almost Texas), very hilly and long (67km or 41 miles). I got my nutrition and sodium intake sorted out today, so my legs cramped less and I had less potty breaks. The best part of today was Russ keeping me company the whole way. I was worried about missing the cut-off (10 hours), but he managed to keep us on track for a 9 hr 8 min finish. Having Leah giving us mental and physical (in the form of copious quantities of Vaseline) support has been wonderful. Tomorrow is the longest mileage day. If I can make it through that, the rest should be smooth sailing.
