First in class.
Survey says?
It's F@%$#*! FREEZING!!!
Cold and rainy to start with, and it only got worse. With body and extremity temps already LOW, racers were further subjected to a "creek" crossing - knee deep - FIVE TIMES. Edge got stuck behind "some guy" for one of the earlier crossings and had no choice but to tip over and submerge his right hand and arm into the frikkin freezing abyss. By the time he got to rest stop two, he had icicles all over his arm warmer and couldn't feel his hand. Thank God for Bruce Dickman, who valiantly stepped in and loaned Edge a new set of gloves for the duration. When racers got to 4,000 feet, they were greeted with snow flurries. At 4,700 feet, they were taunted by falling snow. And by the time they reached 5,000 feet, they were flat out heckled by snow...ON THE GROUND.
30 minutes after the finish, Edge still couldn't feel his feet but was still able to hobble over to the massage table...maybe they could help...
Stay tuned for the finale tomorrow!!
