Event Write-Up
By
Twenty-eight runners took a chance on the weather, and made the trek to Bon Tempe for a short-notice, informal, "Pop Up" event. They were rewarded with not only a beautiful, sunny day at a beautiful venue, but also a chance to run on a brand new map of one of BAOC's favorite venues. Special thanks to our map guru, Bob Cooley, and to Bill Cusworth for weeks of field work! All the runners successfully navigated the "Hillside of Death", which may now need a new name—still treacherous, but now navigable. Thanks also to Laurie Offenbach with the Marin Water District for making the permitting so painless.
Apologies to the Long runners for a misplaced control. I'm blaming it on the stormy Saturday weather and the muddy ragged remains of my map (and I'm sticking with that story!). Despite spending at least 10 minutes virtually surveying the hillside for the control, Matej Å ebo was still able to post the winning time on a demanding Long course.
Everyone seemed to enjoy the day, the courses, the new map, and the beautiful venue.
Thanks for coming!
