YAY....It is Day 2...and I am ALIVE!! I feel wonderful and nothing hurts (surprising)!! We were bused from camp to our route this a.m. Again, the moto-men met us there and got us rockin' and rollin'. Cheering began as soon as we took off and it did not stop until after we finished. Today seemed much easier for some reason and again, we were the first 3 to lead the pack.
The amount of food and candy people hand you as you walk by is dangerous. However, by Day 2, we perfected our wave...and had the "photo-op" smile down pat. Since we were one of the first walkers, the spectators were very loud and pumped to see us. Many called us their first "customers"...lol. Mom and Arnie met us at the last cheering station (mile 19) and by that point my feet were numb, throbbing anchors. They met us at the last Pit stop to pick us up...which was very sweet. However, I should've listened to the medical staff who could tell I was having trouble with my feet and of course I told them I was "fine"....that I "couldn't feel my feet anyway!" Turns out I had major blisters, but I couldn't feel anything, so they weren't hurting. :) Oh well, that is a small price to pay considering, so I bandaged it up and ready to hit the trails tomorrow for the LAST day!!!
