Sure, I know how it feels to develob an injury and try to avoid. And for example on my first TCR I thought my dry nose and throat felt just irritating at first but ended up with regular nose bleeds and a cough that lasted for a couple of weeks, so now I take better care of that too. All that caretaking takes some time but keeps you going for longer and more reliably.
Difference might be that I've done RaTN, TransPyrenees, TCR and I'm prepping for Transiberica right now whereas lots of the rookies will be focused on smashing one event.
