You people are crazy. I'm not doing that. Perhaps that is why I never fail to disappoint myself in race situations. Obviously I need to puke more. Tough ride Sarah, but I would nominate 36 hours of adventure racing on bloody feet as your HTFU.

HTFU for me: An adventure race in Missouri. In December. Cold, wet and next to no sleep the night before, tent camping in below freezing temps. It should have been a 12-14 hour race. I was going on a bad ankle sprain from late Nov and 18 hours into it, I was using trekking poles and walking backwards downhill because I could barely stand. Dude cruises up in a truck and asks if I want a ride.
"F*&k No mister, if I have to crawl over the finish line that's what I'll do" But I din't puke.

Okay so that one isn't a ride either, but it did involve like 30 miles of mtbiking. does that count?
