Brazos Bend: Blisters, Multiple Seasons, Alligators. Oh, and a DNF With a Purpose
from The Stubborn Tortoise · host Donna Pazdera
I went into the Brazos Bend 50-miler on Saturday with the best of intentions. I wanted to finish, I had my mind right and had more or less dealt with a cranky left hip flexor a few days before. Well, I rode out the lows, which helped. The hip was achy, which didn't. The thing that I almost never get was blisters. Under my toenails and feet. I decided to drop. Yes, I know this is my third DNF in a row, but this one had a purpose. I realized I have a great, quickish hiking pace and my mental game was on. My nutrition was spotty. But, at Snowdrop, I know this will be OK. I am confident that I am ready to tackle my hundo. No looking back.
