    Kristen Schindler's review

    Low energy crew members are NOT helpful crew members! Depending on the race, the pace, the terrain, the weather...you name it, you might be out there for 14 hours or 30+ hours. Tiny comforts matter more than you think. Having a place to sit, organize gear, eat, and mentally reset can make a huge difference over the course of a race. Just don't let your runner sit down in it for too long ;)
