Chris was sooooooo awesome to ride with. For sure they would have finished earlier if I hadn't become a boat anchor in the last few miles. We stopped with only 20 miles to go because I simply couldn't stay awake. I took a table nap while Chris and Steve raided the (closed) starbucks cafe at the 24 hour Safeway in Yelm and made coffee. I apologized for needing the break, but Chris said not to worry: they wouldn't leave me. And they didn't! They were so fabulous. (And, I understand he has a blackmail worthy photo of me taking that table nap. I sure hope I wasn't drooling....)

Oh, and btw: for anyone who read my first 600K report last year and remembers that I was saved by a guy named Steve on the second day... yup, the very same Steve. Seems I can't accomplish a new distance record without Steve along for the ride.
