Note 09/26/2005:
And the winner is……
The Sun. The heat today was the winner as most runners struggled
through the course. Several were pulled from the course for
heat and exhaustion, however none needed IV’s because
they could at least keep fluid down (well, still one is here
in the tent with us at 9pm and we’re hoping he’ll
turn the corner and be able to return to his own tent for
the night).
I was able to roam the course in a 4x4 truck for the first
half of the day. The scenery was amazing with spectacular
sand dunes. Unfortunately our truck got stuck in the deep
sand twice and we had to dig it out to get moving again. I
never thought my medical career would lead me to pushing the
front of a jeep while it’s being towed backwards out
of a sand dune. Good thing I work out…
