11-23-11: 20k without water conclusion

On a 14-mile day without water, I began to really feel the internal wear & tear of the day before even reaching the 5-mile mark. Wonderful friends Walt & Belinda had pulled my cart forward for me, allowing me to walk hands-free for a change. I thought I'd packed water for the day, but I was wrong. Oops. Oh well-- I had originally trained for this.
A few miles into the day, the experience grew a bit difficult, but 12 miles in, I spotted the Golden Arches-- which of course meant McWater!! Without spending a dime, I stayed a while, drank half a gallon of McWater, used the McWireless & McBathrooms before hitting the road, totally refreshed! (BIG Thanks to the Staff at the McLa Grange store!)
