"I'm done."

The last phone call I received was a real bummer. The incredible heat of the day had its way with Skip. The heat index peaked in the upper 90's late afternoon and Skip found himself with signs of heat stroke/exhaustion like chills, cramps, goosebumps, things not to be ignored. He and Joe Fox found some shade and a water spigot and waited for a ride for Skip.

Skip did report that he was currently waiting at the final checkpoint of the race when he called (5pm) that at that point only three riders had come through and Corey and Troy were two of them. So at least their was some good news.
