Hitting the JD. I had no idea it extended that far East.
The picture's not really doing the scene justice. At the time, I thought "French Countryside."
"How to Give Yourself a Stress-Fracture."
During Ouachita, I experienced the worst hotspot I have ever felt. At the time, I simply told myself to forget it and kept on riding. After the race, I had spent much of my time riding the cross bike and wearing an older set of shoes. Well, today I went back to the new shoes and, after about 2.5 hours, WHAM, here comes the pain again. I pulled off the shoe to find I was essentially trying to drive a dagger into my foot. I am not quite sure how I missed the fact that the screw was significantly longer than standard when I put my cleats in, but at least I found it now. I cannot image how that would have felt during a 330 mile ride.

me thinks it would've sucked...but I'm a pussy.
You didn't by chance leave that bolt at meadowlark outside. Or someones missing a stem bolt?
The only reason this matters is that I happen to know that JD ends at 48th and it becomes the Murdock trail. I still have your knee warmer, does that sound bad?
Did the same thing with some used Sidi's I bought. Did a 12hr and two 24 hr races in less than two months and caused some nerve damage in my feet. Took close to a year to recover. Be glad you caught it in time.
