RE: The Triple Peaks Challenge 2018 race report
Someone needs to do a better job of chronicling and praising the family members who support their runners. I have been on both sides. My wife's family is full of wacky runners and we have made many family trips around the country to cheer on various members. On a dark note, we were waiting for my father-in-law when the terrible bombing happened in Boston. Luckily he was okay, but he had to stop running a mile from the finish and spent several hours trying to find my mother-in-law. And of course there are much happier stories too :/
I am thinking of writing a post about my wife's 'challenging' time waiting for me to finish the race.
It involves coffees, pedicures, facials, and massages at a day spa.... oh, how she suffers for me :-)
This is a must. Hard luck on not getting fed for a week, these stories must be told about the suffering the support staff have to go through.
