The Relay Champ. Really enjoyed this one, the spectating part was great the running part was even more interesting. Comming out on the last leg I already had a comfortable enough lead, thanks to my teamates, to simply go out, do nothing stupid, and cross the finish line ahead of others. But Wil Smith and I practically started togherther so I was motivated enough to race with him. After fist couple of easy bags in the open, we headed to the woods where we split on the way to #4, though we punched it together later on. We were alternating the lead to the #5, and #6 however, whether I managed to get ahead or because of the forking I didn't see him again till half of the way to the #12. Then I took the wrong spur to the next bag and managed to lose about 1.5 min and Wil in the process. Apparently, John T. passed me somewhere at that time too as he finished ahead of me but behind Wil. Still happy with my run thought it would be nicer to have a cleaner race. DVOA did it a gain, 3rd time in a row I think, what's becoming more of a dynasty now. We need revival of HVO and CSU teams to make things just a bit more interesting. Will they come?
Many thanks to the organizers, they did a superb job and the wether was really nice!
