Re: [RC] Truman's "Just Show Up" Recommendation for 100s - rides2far@xxxxxxxx

Why would a prospective 100 miler want to "just show up" to do his first 100 
if it takes11 total vacation days (a precious commodity), beaucoup $$$ in 
gas, and then no crew (after many have been telling 100s they virtually 
always need a crew on a 100

ELEVEN VACATION DAYS? Where the heck did that come from? Other than for the Pan 
Ams where they *made* us show up a week early, I've never taken over one day 
off to do a 100. About the only difference in going to a 50 or 100 for me is 
that if I'm doing a 100 I mix up 3 or 4 more doses of electrolytes.
