I get a fourth place on the day.

And every day it's like the Tour of France.

You get a cumulative time.

So it's, it's like 25 to 30 miles a day for four days for three days.

Then there's a 50 mile stage.

Then there's two more than there's 26 miles, a marathon.

And then the last day is like five miles and you're getting a little bit lighter every day, but not terribly because you have your backpack, a sleeping pad, all your shit in the backpack and the food.

So you're eating a little bit of food, but it's not like it's getting like pounds lighter every day.

There's certain, even on the last day, you still had at least 10 pounds in that backpack with all the backpack and this, I mean, the sleeping bag and all this.

So the second day I was like, oh my God, I got to manage my pace.

I went out too hard, but I also arrived less than 24 hours before the race started like an idiot.

Yes.

I didn't do anything right.

So then I was like, all right, F it.

We're in this now.

The second day is 28 miles.

I go very conservative.

Before I know it, I'm looking around.

I'm like, oh my God, I'm leading by a lot, but I'm not killing myself.

So then I start to pull it on.
