I always wonder why I don’t see people using walkie talkies? you, lisa and your crew could keep in contact. it would really help at the Rockwell relay. The last time I did a 24 mtn race with a team of 4. it was always a guessing game when my time was up as the night went on.

I was the neutral aid when the Hammer pulled in, so surreal reading about the same moment from a different perspective. I was feeling pretty crushed then, recalling when you and the Hammer caught me, I’m super excited to hear what happens next

I’d be very interested to know the story from your perspective — it’d be great to know what your day was like. Got time to write a guest post? – FC

@Leroy. My wife and I have both tried HotShot. The upside is that it really appears to work, especially for my wife. The downside is the taste really leaves something to be desired. You need to slug it down and not think. Overall I give it a thumbs up.

Ha, you’re going to be interested in how I describe the taste in my upcoming post. – FC

Did you use any HotShot this year? Curious to know if you’ve had further experience with this. (When you tried it, they were calling it #itsthenerve.)

Seemed to work for me this weekend. “Seemed to work” as in I downed a shot a few minutes before I thought I might cramp, still started to cramp a few minutes later, but worked through it without much trouble.

I did. It will make a featured appearance in a future episode. – FC

You know what I like about The Hammer? She’s not a “everything is falling apart, so I must panic” kind of woman. She just went up, got filled up, and was ready to roll.

Is it okay to ask if there will be a fall 100MoN this year? I thought of it on my bike commute this morning.

I am trying to put together a 100MoN right now, in fact. More news soon. – FC
