Super hot Fall day & slick rocks until Monroe then into the clouds where things were even wetter & slicker. Presi PR by ONE SECOND despite feeling awful from the start. Super upset stomach. Got to my bike a complete wreck but with a sense of humor. Bike ride was brutal with the stomach issues and severe dehydration.GPS was messed up and tried to take me onto a trail past Clinton Road and my mind was too tired to notice until I finally turned around and went back to Clinton Road. Roads were a little soft from being wet. Downhill was fun but I was on the verge of puking at times. Overall today was exactly what I asked for. Technically self supported because I left a water bottle with tailwind with my bike but I didn't change my shorts or shoes. Though bike shoes would've probably helped. Went the gravel route the same way the original male FKT holder and the mixed gender team went.
