Discussion: Sign-up now!

how many teams signed up?

biggins:

Anybody need a partner? I'll be in the neighborhood that day.

Jul 13, 2012 9:59 PM #

Not many, as far as I know (the Sanctuary is handling entries), which is why I posted the message. Just because it's summer doesn't mean you can sleep through the deadline. I anticipate at least fifteen teams, hopefully a bunch more...

Feel free to do some last minute advertising.

Jul 14, 2012 2:17 AM #

Also, teams that enter now will have their names on their bibs...

Jul 14, 2012 2:33 AM #

Pink Socks:

More events should have names on bibs. First time it happened to me was NAOC 2010. I made sure to have them at "O, ftw!", since it was only another 5 cents per bib to have that.

Jul 14, 2012 11:39 AM #

Pavlina and I will be there.

Jul 15, 2012 5:32 PM #

Charlie:

@biggins (or someone else). I might go if a partner turns up.

Jul 16, 2012 2:58 PM #

Team names should be in by tomorrow afternoon to make it onto the bibs.

Jul 16, 2012 4:19 PM #

biggins:

Charlie - sounds good, lets do it.

Jul 18, 2012 11:54 AM #

Hi--any more info about the race? Do we need any special tools? Start @ 9AM?

Who is racing?

Jul 18, 2012 2:01 PM #

No (but working on it). I'd bring fluids (only three water stations planned). Yes (well, 9.15, but walk to start at 9).

Barbarians:
Irish Rovers
Team BG Elite
CSU, Inc.
Merciless Growlers
No Adult Supervision
Team Banditos
Sailor and Landlubber

Viking Course (5+km)
Disoriented Anonymous
Greg & Charlie
Team Roadrunners
Team Person

Pity the Breton girls are away, I don't know who to put my money on.

Jul 18, 2012 2:30 PM #

Can you divulge who's on what team, please?

I need to talk to my bookie ASAP.

Jul 18, 2012 2:44 PM #

dlevine:

No Adult Supervision = Mike Ball and David Levine

(bookie should be giving very long odds)

Jul 18, 2012 2:45 PM #

I don't have that information, actually.

It seems like it will be quite the international race though... almost as many countries represented as teams.

Jul 18, 2012 3:57 PM #

Csu=Clem& Brendan?

Jul 18, 2012 10:07 PM #

bshields:

That's CSU, Inc., mister.

Jul 19, 2012 1:22 AM #

jjcote:

Greg & Charlie is Greg and Charlie. (Or biggins and Charlie, if you prefer.)

Jul 19, 2012 10:42 PM #

Currently 10 Barbarian teams, 7 Viking.

Jul 20, 2012 2:22 PM #

Maps are printed. OfficeMax is infinitely better than Fedex.

Jul 21, 2012 4:42 AM #

GuyO:

I hope the results include team members' names...

Jul 21, 2012 1:52 PM #

Hammer:

@guyO - Just like baseball and football right?

Jul 22, 2012 3:00 AM #

GuyO:

Just like orienteering... ;-)

Baseball players are listed in the box score, but only the ones who got in the game.

Jul 22, 2012 3:34 AM #

The participants will all know each other intimately by the end of the race.

Jul 22, 2012 10:41 AM #

Can't wait

Charlie:

Excellent, Neal. Thanks very much. That was quite a nice spread provided by the folks from the Sanctuary.

Jul 22, 2012 10:21 PM #

The Sanctuary people are great.

PS Guy, the Latecomers won :)

Great event Neil, thanks for organizing!

Jul 22, 2012 11:24 PM #

great fun. Hotdogs at 11:30, yum.

Jul 22, 2012 11:32 PM #

Yes--awesome! Sanctuary people are great, and so are you. The woods get an honorable mention--spectacular! Some of those hillsides with the low skein of grass were almost too much. It is like a fantasy forest.

edwarddes:

Those bibs look like they turned out nicely.

Jul 23, 2012 12:12 AM #

Nice bibs, for sure.

Jul 23, 2012 2:34 AM #

What were the results?

Jul 23, 2012 4:55 AM #

GuyO:

Lots of unfamiliar faces...

...a GOOD thing!

Jul 23, 2012 1:33 PM #

dlevine:

Excellent courses - truly in the spirit of the DontGetLost runs! Great woods, great weather, and great food. Can't ask for more than that! Thanks to all who put this on.
