Team GMARA at Racing Ahead's 24 hour series final 2008

Team GMARA goes to Racing Ahead's 24 hour series final. Each of us travelled about 85 miles, gained 2800 meters of elevation, burned 12500 calories, and drank ~13 litres of water. The weather went from the predicted 85 degrees and sunny to roving thunderstorms dumping huge amounts of water off and on all race. There was a memorable portage through a tunnel under all four lanes of route 89, and the final trekking rogaine leg was especially cool - great orienteering map with 20 points to go find, made extra tough by the thick nighttime fog. (There was a lot of stringing folks out to both search for a point and not lose the trail.) Thanks to Tracey, Steve, and all the volunteers of Racing Ahead for putting on another great race!
