Notes
Mockingbird Fat Ass - ran pretty consistently during the first 3 loops, and then the guys I was running with started picking up the pace and dropped me. I hoped to get in 6 loops and wanted at least 4, so I didn't want to do anything stupid. I also was having some dizziness issues and was growing some good blisters on the multi-varied and wet terrain. I saw Ian & Emma weren't too far behind me on lap 4, so I changed my socks during the aid station break (hence the extra 5 and a half minutes over my other breaks) and while it didn't do much to prevent the blisters from continuing to grow at least they weren't so obviously uncomfortable for the last loop. Got to see a large bald eagle swoop over Kip, got in over 25 miles before calling it quits, enjoyed 2 bowls of chili and 2 bowls of soup at the end, and was pretty exhausted the rest of the day. Fun times to be had by all. Emma went on to complete a 6th loop (and a bit, to make 50k) and Ian went on to complete a 7th loop. I believe Joe also did 6 loops, although I didn't run with him other than for the first few miles of loop 1. The other dozen or so of us settled on fewer loops.
