Pushing the Limits

This weekend I slept in the back of my car; woke before the sun; hauled about 400 gallons of water and a truckload of food into the woods where I stayed for most of the morning; then left the woods and drove to a highway underpass where I stayed until almost sundown. This was all in support of the Wilderness 101 mountain bike race. We were treated to all kinds of weather and a lot of people tested their limits to try and complete the 101 mile race through the woods of Central Pennsylvania on Saturday. I’m completely worn down, got very little sleep, and I hurt even though I didn’t get on a bike. It wasn’t your average weekend, but I did get a pint glass out of the deal.
