Dude, you are not normal, but... you are awesome for riding it out. It's like an endurance test... but only a private one that's just for you.
If a charlie horse is like a cramp the you should definatly stretch it out. If it doesn't hurt you extra to sit though it then sit through it.
No, it's best to straighten your leg as soon as it happens. It will hurt, but it is best to get it over with. Drinking lots of fluids, and having electrolytes and potassium helps a lot too (aka Gatorade and bananas)
