Thanks for the sympathy... Funny how you never need that back up until you really really need it. I didn't need it 10 minutes, five minutes, one minute before the k-5 failed. But when it failed, it certainly did so in craptacular fashion. I had a moment's panicked thought of ripping the k-01 out of my husband's hands in the middle of the race, but... decided against that. Later on, I thought I should have commandeered a fellow parent's Rebel, that was sitting unused....
