my legs were jelly! I couldn't walk down the steps of the train.
definitely stretch at each stop eat and drink even if you don't think you need it. its a long ride you will burn it off.

Adrenaline, excitement and the mood surrounding the ride will get you through, no problem! don't forget to REST, EAT and STRETCH!
