Well for starters the November weather didn’t disappoint. Legs 3,4,5 and half of 6 got the rain. Lucky us.
First the only PRR member on a non PRR team - Ellie. 1:02:43 on Leg 3 - and 54:11 on Leg 7 according to the official results. Misprint? or did she actually run the two hardest legs. Wouldn’t put it past her. Ellie’s team - the VFAC John’s Angels won the women’s open division and placed 9th overall. (Note: See Ellie’s comment for clarification.)
Now on to the club teams. Four teams. Several first timers in the event - Paul P, Carla, Russell, Cherryl, Paul B, Lynne, Dan G-D - anyone else?

Quotes from the event
Jack when he crossed the finish line: Still above ground! (Well done Jack. We’re all glad you’re still above ground.)
Cherryl (new to the event): I can’t believe all the competition within the club. (Um, that’s what we live for!)
Terry at dinner: Next year there should be two no pressure teams and I want to be on one. (ya, right)
Russell at dinner: It’s all no pressure until Susan gets you under her thumb. (Perhaps slightly paraphrased but the spirit of the quote is correct)
Dave at dinner: Here’s to never having to run Leg 3 again!
