Are you guys coming? After all the talk of boycotting 25-manna, will you be here anyway? And what leg will you run? I am doing 7d for Linné-2. Hope your teeth heal, but maybe your scary look will terrify your competitors!

We didn't boycot last year after the ridiculous 25manna 2006, so there is no point doing it this year either.
As you may have noticed I have been drinking LL every morning for almost two weeks - yes, we are coming! I am not sure will there be 25 of us, so many injuries, colds and flus.
My trip to Sweden can be vieved online here, starts from Helsinki railway station:

It should auto-reload about every minute (if I move and tracking is on in my cell phone).
And don't know leg yet either for sure. It changes about every minute too :) It used to be 7. then 6. now the best guesstimate is 2nd. We'll know better when we see who will be on the ferry and who not.
My current running shape is quite bad. Worst in years. I think in mid 80s I was about this slow, at age 15-17. And on path/road I have this achilles pain as a bonus. But rest of us are not doing any better, so there will be no short leg for me.
Plastic teeth are lighter than the original ones, so they may make me a bit faster now. That's not doping, right? Anyway, my teeth are good enough for biting sausages.

Hope you get in better shape after your trip on the ferry. I´ve heard there will be doping tests at 25manna though. Too much LL wíll get you disqualified ;-)
I will run 6th leg for our third team - not in my best shape either, I´m training and racing every week just to get out, but without very much extra energy...
