About 60 teams entered. With such a hard race some would inevitably not finish, but most did. The fastest team was also fast last year. We were placing 4th most of the time, but the 6-man team the Team Mudsharks [mud puppies?] started to collapse as the lack of sleep and so much running must have been too much. Maybe their running strategy was not the best too. But good running for them!
The My Sole Mates, a all gurls team from Guelph and area was headed by Team Captain Ginny - a defector from Guelph to Pennsylvania. While spying on our team's activities and good planning, they could not come anywhere near us. But good for them for their great effort. Not as great as ours, but all the same, not bad for a bunch of gurls! [don't worry, Ginny deserves all the trash talk she gets!] ;-)
I'll post the other stage results, but you can all see them online.
