Hey, just saw your message. It is now 9 days after the race and I still limp. I lost just about all the skin on my left heel. Something wrong with your feet being stuck in cold, wet skates for over 7 hours! It was the most incredible thing I have ever done. 52 weeks 'til next year! I put my skates on last Friday for about a 2 mile roll, my foot hurt like hell, but, it felt great! I am still high from the race. My support van got stuck servicing my two compatriots (55 and 68 miles), and I didn't see him from mile 37 until 30min after finish. But, I might had quit had he been around miles 55-75! I was impressed by the attitudes of the other skaters and the other support crews...everyone was helping everyone else to cross the finish line. It was awesome! Well, gotta roll.

Next message...
