Well this was it. Every factor was against us on the team. One of our girls dropped, forcing Mason and I to add extra legs to our three original. Rylie got lost and ran an extra 5 miles on her night run. Someone collapsed and Kyrie had to stay with them and call for help for 20 minutes on her last leg. Kedric had knee problems, I had chest problems, and Kenny had some stomach issues. But still, we were at 23 hours and only had one runner left. We knew it was gonna come between us and Alta. We waited on the finish line, knowing Jordan should finish any second now. As the time passing by got ludicrously long, we watched Alta and another team pass by. Then we fell timewise behind another team. It turns out Jordan's tendons had locked up and he barely survived his run(not literally). There was really no one to blame. I gave my all, that's all I could've done. But the website has us ranked second, so I call it that for now. We lost by 7 minutes, which is pretty insane for all that went down. Good times.
