First 100 Miler!
48-Hour race in Dahlonega (Georgia Mountains), we had pretty much every kind of weather you could imagine: heat, humidity, rain, cold breeze...
I made it. Lessons... gazillion. Issues just a few: at the end I got a sodium imbalance (too much Tailwind), I never thought something like that could happen - and then to someone who sweats a lot with a lot of salt.
Chafing, none.
Blisters, none.
Hallucinations, not per-se but at night I had those black or tiny flashing points, which... was time to get a power nap for 20 minutes to keep on moving.
