I didn't laugh. A little bit frightening to see such physical extremes, an insight into a profound state of mind, powerful emotions and drive.. I wonder why they feel that way, and what it is about them that causes that level of commitment?

Didn't laugh, didn't like it. Too much empathy.

I've bonked a number of times. It's horrible at the time, truely one of life's nasty experiences. I remember near the end of one particularly cruel road ride I just couldn't pedal any more, stopped moving forwards and fell over onto the verge where I lay unmoving for about ten minutes still clipped in. I'd have eaten dog shit if I thought it would have given me enough energy to unclip. It hurts and you feel like death.

If someone would have videoed it though I'd be laughing now. No harm done.

Is it only me that sees it a bit coincidental both bonked in the same place in such a long race?
If it had been a mile longer neither would have finished.
Im not sure its 100%.

Im smell a rodent.

'Im smell a rodent'. Each to their own but there's surely better things to do.

Been there done that. Personally. That is, to have pushed myself to such extremes.

With regards to the clip, I was actually there. It wasn't funny.
