by Penny DeMoss, meet director
I've combined the two days' results since the conditions were identical on both days. Thanks to Chris Taylor for setting such enjoyable courses. This was his course-setting debut and I'd say he's got real talent.
The legendary "hillside of death" claimed its usual number of victims (including me, which is really silly since I mapped it!), but everyone survived, and returned to hot cocoa and treats and a good laugh. The weather was good, a bit chilly, but perfect for running. No rain! Many sightings of wild turkeys and deer, the resident blue heron made an appearance both days, and Chris spotted an osprey. Such a beautiful place....
Thanks very much to the following people who helped Chris and me pick up controls after the event: Vivian Lee, Peter Graube, Bill Wright, Alan LaVergne, Harold DeMoss. Thanks also to Rosemary Johnson for getting the permit for this meet.
