San Elijo Hills Race - Saturday October 19
by Ann and Ian
A huge thanks to everyone who
braved the heat and hills to race on Saturday. It was
fantastic to watch everyone experience the course, and to hear about
your adventures when you got back!
Thanks also for the donations to the 3 Day walk, you guys rock.
The race
started with 27 teams and 59 racers, but magically there were 30 teams
and 59 racers finish. So we lost nobody, but some teams
morphed along the way. There were 7 trek checkpoints and 10
bike checkpoint. Short course had to visit at least 4 trek
points and 4 bike points. Other bike points had various
values, hence the bike scores. Three teams visisted all
checkpoints.
Congratulations to all who braved the blazing sun on a day where the
high temperature was in the 80's. Below
are the results for all teams.
