"At the peak of tremendous and victorious effort, while the blood is pounding in your head, all suddenly comes quiet within you. Everything seems clearer and whiter than ever before, as if great spotlights had been turned on. At that moment, you have the conviction that you contain all the power in the world, that you are capable of everything, that you have wings. There is no more precise moment in life than this, the WHITE MOMENT, and you will work hard for years, just to taste it again."

My first DNF
I DNF'd at Silverman. I was 30-45 minutes shy of the bike cut off. I'll post more on this later today.
Glad to hear from you Cody. I have DNF'd under really daft circumstances--like thinking I'm going to drown in a lake that's only 4 feet deep. Whatever happened, your's has merit. That's quite a course to bite off and chew. I'm so glad that you're out there and writing. Thanks for thinking of us. Hope you're doing OK and look forward to hearing from you when you're ready. Take good care of yourself!

Sh!t!!!!!!! really sorry to hear that :( .... as Chris says at least you are OK :)
Your brave to take on a course like that! My friend is a mountain goat (#140) and he had a very hard time last year.
We read on Geekgirl's site you didn't finish - glad you're ok. Take care
sorry to hear about that Cody - it's no fun to DNF.
