First off, I’ve never really had a leg cramp before, a twinge occasionally but that’s about it. A few nights ago I had a massive cramp of my quad that woke me out of my sleep. I won’t bore you with the details but it took several minutes before it eased enough for me to stop sounding like I was a woman in labor with breached twins (panting and groaning). It was still iffy for about 1.5 hours despite water and electrolyte solution, Interestingly enough, I seemed well hydrated at my last pit stop prior to sleep. Later, I thought about scuba (as I am prone to do) and just totally frightened myself. That cramp will make me a better buddy!! My question is, have you ever “saved” someone that was having a massive cramp? Were they able to notify you, or did you notice them having problems?
