Event: CNYO's 25th Annual ROGAINE
Note
Map! With route! Click for bigger (4.7MB), with track from QuickRoute:
12 PM
Rogaining race (CNYO 24-hr Rogaine) 22:25:46 [1] 57.88 mi (23:15 / mi) +3727ft 21:55 / mi
shoes: Adidas adiZero XT
CNYO 24-hour Rogaine with Sam Kolins! I thought I was ready. It was very hard on my feet (why did I swap shoes at the hash house?), and the amount of mud on the ground was amazing.
* Cows in the dark are scary (a little less than buffalo)
* Barbed wire fences are scary, tricky, and tedious after dozens and dozens
* The glens were where the awesome woods were. Stunning
* The map was excellent
* The food at the hash house was superb
* CNYO knows how to do a rogaine!
* * *
Sam was a great team captain, with a good plan, and incredible performance. We ended up doing more than I expected, assuming the GPS is accurate in any way.
Note: looking at the track, it looks pretty good besides starting at #1 instead of at the start (must have took a while to get a signal). So probably another mile tacked on there.
I have never seen anyone eat so much food. Awesome! It was a lot of fun spending the day/night/day with you, Sam.

May have a minor high ankle sprain (right), or maybe it's just a strain exacerbated by 24-hours of pounding, a good bit on road, which I'm not really used to. Have some pretty ugly blisters, and definitely losing left big toenail. The amount of time that my big blistery feet were steeping in cow poopy water makes me a bit worried. I may get prophylactic tetanus shot (barbed wire) and antibiotics (16 hour poop stew soak). See how I feel in the morning. ;)
Probably some more thoughts after some sleep.

Jog around Penn Park (Franklin Field was closed) ... I was going to do steps, I'm glad I didn't, as my legs aren't back from Saturday's run, and they need to be fresh for CNYO Rogaine this weekend.
