oh, not now. but i'm pretty sure i did have it once. it was back in high school. i was at cedar point (you know, the amusement park in OH?) with my girlfriend at the time, her sister, and her sister's friend. i'm not sure how it even happened, honestly, though maybe i wasn't drinking enough fluids?
anyway, we were waiting in line for a roller coaster in the awful heat for a few hours and i started to feel more and more shitty. i ended up sitting down on the ground when the line wasn't moving. but by the time we got to the top, i started to feel like i was going to throw up and i didn't have the energy to stand. one of the workers gave me some water to drink and his hat dipped in cold water to put on my neck. my girlfriend was super pissed off because she wanted to ride the roller coasters together with me, but i felt like i couldn't even walk. which pretty much sums up our relationship right there. it wasn't until it started to rain and the weather cooled off that we realized i had a fever. then she was nice to me again. typical. we ended up sitting in my car in the parking lot for awhile with the air conditioning on until i felt a little better, but i still had to drive all of us home from fucking sandusky to detroit afterward. i probably should have gone to the hospital, right? but i sure as hell wasn't supposed to be in ohio, so i didn't want to get in trouble with my parents! X__X
32 miles, that's CRAZY! i guess you probably trained for it, though? shit, i'm glad you were okay! O_O
