Day 3: Unplanned Occurrences
This is the end, my only friend, the end
I could have handled being tired. I could have handled the extra bit of soreness, and the over exposure to sun from yesterday. What I cannot seem to handle is waking up sick, with the shakes, a horrible headache, and serious digestive difficulties. I'm almost to weak to walk down the hall of the hotel I checked into, and spent most of the day in bed.
I started to improve later in the day, but as evening set in my condition deteriorated even farther. I have decided to end this journey here, and catch the train tomorrow to home. Such a disappointment.
I have a lot of thinking to do.

Oh do I feel your pain. See my latest journal for my run in with sunstroke. Your conclusions are all bang on, but I would add one more: electrolytes are not to be taken lightly. Gatorade, Powerade or similar would do wonders for your hydration status. I hope your recovery was swift.
Cheers,
Keith
