Nothing much to detail about the food while running Ragnar. I did bring some humus and pita that gulped down in installments after each one of my legs, but outside of that and a few nuts, there wasn't anything of particular interest. The only exception perhaps was our stop at one of the exchanges on Friday just around 7:00 PM. Very close to the exchange there is a little ice cream parlor/cheese shop/sandwich place. The same one we visited last year. Honestly can't remember the name.
Turns out, the place usually closes at 7:00 PM, or at least thats when they stop serving food and ice cream, you can still buy cheese. We get there at 7:00 PM sharp and are told we are too late. Mel somehow sweet talks her way into ordering four Turkey Sandwiches, the last that will come out of the kitchen (mine pictured below).

The attendants and the owner were caught entirely by surprise by the race (for the second year). They tell us that had they know the date, they could have arranged to have staff available to stay open until at least 9:00 PM. They could have also increased their inventory of certain products. It looks like the chocolate milk (which has an optimal ratio of carbohydrates to protein to help refuel tired muscles, research shows), to my disappointment, run out fast.
