Lessons learned:

Don't leave water in your camelbak for one week and then drink it.

Don't skip dinner before a 24 hour race or training event.

Bring easy to eat foods that require minimal chewing such as applesauce, Ensure, fruit cocktail, pringles.

Avoid certain strongly-flavored canned soup

To avoid nausea, don?t drink carbonated drinks. Drink flat Coke

To avoid 5 hours of sleep walking, have a Starbucks Frappucino.

Carry some backup food with caffeine, such as espresso gels, chocolate coffee beans, etc

Trekking poles keep you from falling over when you are sleep walking uphill. Keep talking to each other in order to stay alert. Talk about the strange things you are seeing on the side of the trail such as large non-existent boulders, imaginary redwood trees, etc.
