I think mile 85, we're laughing, we're chuckling.
We're even considering like skipping the last aid station.
And then we got to mile 93 aid station.
And from 93 to 98, it was five straight miles of complete incline, winding hills.
I think we ended up parallel.
It was crazy.
I was looking at a mountaintop and it was only like right here.
Yeah.
And it felt like there was no end to that.
Like imagine running 93 miles.
93 this makes me sick thinking about it makes me sick 93 miles and then they're looking at us and there's like there's five miles of hills and it felt like it never ended and i guess in ultra marathoning you never run up a hill so we're just walking so we're taking 25 to 30 minute miles so it ended up being just two hours of walking up a huge mountain and
after running 93 miles.
And that was a breaking point like I've never experienced.
I kind of treated it like I was like, I hate to compare it, but like I'm sure people are tortured in the world, like army people.
I was kind of treating it like that.
I was like, yo, there's people that get tortured worse than this.
I kind of got to just think of it like that where like I'm literally getting tortured right now and I'm going to survive.
I got to beat the pain.
And, yeah, it was just shutting the brain off and being like, this is temporary.
This is going to be over.
