Delta, UT to Payson, UT

When I woke up today, it felt like a nightmare. I was still in shock of the whole situation. I woke up at 6:12 AM today, 12 minutes late from when I was suppose to wake up. Regardless, I got ready quickly, got ready, packed up, and ate the usual breakfast, this time including a slice of banana bread. When we did our usual circle up, I brought up the situation involving my computer. Drayton spoke a little, but it was nice to get all the emotions off my chest. I know its just a computer, but the situation could have been handled a lot better. I really do feel a little bit betrayed. Immediately, people came up to me to give their expertise and their opinion. It got me thinking, there's some rally good people in this world, and I'm truly blessed to get to know a few of them this summer.As we started the ride, my paceline just started to roll. The road was pretty flat, which was my specialty. Maybe I had a lot of frustration, maybe I had a lot on my mind, but either way, I was cruising. Before I knew it, 40 miles were over. At that point, we got to a terrain I was relatively unfamiliar with: rolling hills. It put it to my hardest gear, built up enough momentum, and I literally destroyed those hills. I really don't know where all that energy came from, but I was flying. Soon, we got to the 60 mile mark, which was lunch. We had to wait 43 minutes for the next paceline to show up. 43 minutes. That's ridiculous. We ended up having an hour and a half lunch, just from waiting for the rest of the team to show up. If we skipped lunch, we would of made it to lodging by noon. Crazy to think biking 80 miles and to be done by noon. As we finished lunch, we headed to lodging. This was the last day we were on highway 50 AKA the loneliest highway in America. Coming back to civilization, it was weird to be past by so many cars. We got to lodging, which was a senior citizen center/police station (yeah, I don't really understand it either). One all the other pacelines returned, we went to a local high school gym to shower. The school seamed really big, which is a pretty good indicator that the showers would be nice. After that, I returned back to lodging, and a crew member drove me to the post office to send a my broken computer back home. We came back, and went went with a few team members to Walmart. Since my bag was a little lighter, I finally had room to store what my body was craving: protein powder. I bought half a gallon of milk (it was the best deal out there, for $2) and started chugging. Got back to lodging. There's this one kid in the group, Alex, who I guess loves challenges. Someone dared him to eat a "Mormon cricket" and to spare you the details, he did not disappoint.I couldn't handle it, so I opted to take a break, and get some fresh air as I went to Mexican fast food restaurant for some 4th meal. We went to TacoTime which was basically like a upper class TacoBell. It was alright but still kind of disgusting (I'm not a fan of fast food) but filling, nonetheless. Returned back to lodging and called it a night. It was a good recovery day, physically, sure. But especially mentally.
