TransIowa Recap Part Four: Always Another Race

Sam and I waited at the Cenex in Paulina for four hours after we shut it down. I think we stopped shivering after the first two. The highlight of our stay was Sam falling asleep and leaving a nice little drool puddle on the table.

Once Team RamRodd (two D's) arrived, we went to Algona to get our gear. Luckily Paddy was there with Guinness and, in the finest tradition, Sam went to the local liquor store to get more. Apparently the clerk said, "It's about time someone bought some good beer today." Damn Right.

It was nice to actually talk with familar names in person. Thanks again to Jeff and Mark for making it happen.

In short order, we have the Platte Marathon, Kanza and the 12hr all back to back to back. No reason to cry over the rain, plenty coming up.
