Racing underway - Leg 34
The red alert weather delay has passed and we're able to get on with the race. Vern started leg 34 at 12:15, a 1 hour, 20 minute delay. The rain is still falling lightly, but there's no lightening and the rain is keeping the temperatures down. Hopefully the weather will stay reasonable until we can finish.
Leg 32 recap - Chris is Done!
Chris' leg went past Abbott Labs and the Naval Academy before jumping onto a bike path. The guy van was supposed to catch up to Chris at Belvidere St. to give him some water, but they got a late start and even though Al ran a red light in an attempt to catch up, we didn't catch up with Chris until a few streets later. Chris finished at 10:18AM, finishing his leg in approximately 69 minutes.
Red Alert
Ominous storm clouds causing a stoppage in the racing
We're stuck at transfer point 33 waiting out a thunderstorm. Justin finished the leg at 10:55AM and we all piled in to the van just as it started to rain. We haven't had anything severe happen in our area, but the course officials want to play it safe. The storm looks to be dissipating so we're hoping to get underway in a half hour or so.
Sweaty Finished Ladies
The ladies are done. They are sweaty and tired, but they are done! Now the men just have to finish up their legs.
Tammy shows off her map that got her through the leg. She finished her last leg (#32) at 9:09AM putting the team 17 minutes ahead of their estimated finish time.
Kathleen, Nicole and Pam are Done!
