HOTS update 8 days 18 hours
the camp is quiet now.
most everyone here is asleep
keeping themselves charged enough for upcoming ferries of tired runners down to motels to recover.
we cant let them drive themselves in their debilitated state.
strung out all the way back to signal mountain,
singly, in twos and threes
the remaining 24 runners trudge thru the darkness…
there are no owls or coyotes tonight
as the air hangs thick and heavy.
for those who remain on the road the call of sand mountain grows stronger with every step.
the mountain itself waits in the silence.
one final towering obstacle.
