Just got back from VA. I will right the report in the next few days, this is just a brief update. I ended up stopping after 17 hours and 60 miles. Not so much because I was hurting, but I just didn't feel like running anymore. I made a lot of mistakes and learned a TON about what it will take to finish a 100 miler, and how mental it will be. It was a great race, I met some awesome people and had a great time. I felt pretty good today, very little soreness or pain. The only problem I have is a huge bruise that has developed on the ball of my right foot, which makes it crazy painful to walk, I'm icing it right now. I spent most of today in D.C. lounging in the grass by the reflecting pool in between the Washington monument and Lincoln memorial. It was a really nice day.
