120 Hour Club dances during DM's 7th block

"120 Hour Club" members are going strong during the STA's Road Trip block.

Cathy Barrera and Michelle Rheinschmidt, seniors who have danced in DM every year during their time at Northwestern, said they feel good in their 19th hour of dancing.

"It's weird how you don't really get to rest but you still feel totally awake," said Barrera, a Communication major.

The dance partners said they were most tired at sunrise but have more energy now.

"Really the only time they play slow songs is during sunrise, when you have this lull of energy," Barrera said. "But then they start trying to pump you back up."

Breaks to eat make the marathon go by more quickly, said Rheinschmidt, a Weinberg senior.

"Now we can finally start counting down," she said. "Before there were too many blocks left."
