It was so cold that I couldn’t hold my flashlight with my bare hands. The one thing I didn’t do that could have made this experience a whole lot better? I didn’t prepare properly. I put my cold gear too far in the race that when I finally reached it was already too late, I already had endured many miles of cold weather and I am sure I was close to hypothermia by then. I wish somebody had told me this before. But here is the thing, I never asked anybody about it, I just went there thinking that I knew what I was doing.

This morning a friend of mine wrote in his status on Facebook that he was going to run that same race next weekend and asked if there was anything he should need to know before the race. I immediately answered and told him to be prepared for the hot days, the cold nights and the technical terrain. We exchanged a few messages and at the end of the conversation I had told him what my experience had been and what should he be prepared with. He had the common sense to ask, and he was getting buy tramadol in canada lots of feedback and advice. Smart man!!
