The furious pain cave of ultra triathletes

Crushed by exhaustion, you may dream of a competitor's head morphing into a Pokémon-like demon — and then open your eyes and still see it. The next day, you will quit the race. To fill your queasy stomach during your third 112-mile bike ride, you will discover the best way to eat a sausage-and-egg sandwich: Shove it in your mouth and let it slowly dissolve. After 500 miles on a bike, 10 in the water, and more than 100 on foot, it will make perfect sense to grab a branch and a broomstick in a desperate bid to propel yourself — like a giant mutant insect — the last 31 miles.
