I pulled this thread up because I'm looking into doing the 100 at Kettle Moraine 2012. I seriously almost cried reading this. I'll make sure I have a good reason to finish what I start in June and hope if things do go south I have the presence of mind (or accidental luck) to refuel and refresh at an aid station before making a final decision.
Nice report. I always tell people that doing an ultra is half mental and have physical. Sounds like this one was 99% mental for you. Glad that you got over that and finished. It will make you stronger for your other races.
