Stage 3: Leadville to Camp Hale 40 km

Alot of runners are walking around funny, sore legs are being seen from the less experince d runners at breakfast. Even though the elevation gain today is not big it's still 3, 000 feet at over 10,000 feet. Realy long and hot day. We will be heading to Nova guides 40 km ahead on some great terrain.

Prerace food:Orange Juice & Cranberry JuiceCoffee, Potato & Cheddar Quiche
Race food : Raid revo pack and two Nuun tablet. Clif bloks and watermelon from one of the Check points with flat coke.
Post race food: Can of tuna, flat coke, Nuun tablet,
Dinner : Salad, Spaghetti with sauce Chicken Entree, Rice Pilaf. Two Burgers with lots of Nuun. 4- beers (it's my weakness)
Positive high : Ran well in the heat. Great single track on the continental divide trail.
Lows: lets' just say there was lots of emotion on the trail. I realizie that there has been a serious miss unterstanding in my partners abilities. Having to drop as a unclassifed racer. I can still start everyday, but it means nothing. mmmmmmmm........not happy !!!!!
