I think you are just seeing the splits divided up differently because she definitely sped up there for a couple miles.

Ah, okay.  Either way, she's kicking serious ass.

[trigal]

They're both doing so well!! I hope they're able to see each other on the course!

chw57 is now at 9:50/mi OMG, she's killing it!

So amazing! Can't believe you are finding the energy to pick it up! Bring it home!!

[archaeominx]

I cannot imagine moving for that many hours and THEN picking up speed. You guys are amazing!

[2doxies]

So inspiring, amazing work!

[cinco]

Holy cow, I can't believe she's almost done! Woah!

I only bought finger food. I don't know what others are bringing so it probably wouldn't hurt to have some. I have a big stack of styrofoam plates and chick fila napkins, so you don't need to get either of those. But maybe some forks?

Has anyone else lost sound on the live feed?

I lost sound...I still don't have it.

[taratru]

I cannot fathom the awesomeness of those two.

[clseale]

Forget sound, I can't see the video on any devices, period! I am piiiiissssed! WTF?!

[texassmith]

I just saw on fb that kams had 2 flats on the bike and ran through dog poop. I just want to give her a big hug! Well, after she washes off said poop, lol.

You should!

[clseale]

FB tells me that Kams came off the bike challenged & tired, but not defeated. Two flats on the bike course. Way to keep pushing, my friend! So damn proud of you!!
