Thank goodness I was in the bathtub when the nausea hit! I felt so weak, I just laid in the tub for hours feeling drained and sick and not wanting to move my calf. Climbing even one more mountain seemed like an impossibility.

... We decided that I would have to take a recovery day.
This part summed up for me the attitude required to accomplish something so huge, to keep moving toward the goal somehow even in such a diminished state. Congrats on an amazing, intimidating accomplishment!
