So guy van threw do and tried to make up the ground we lost with that little mishap. Hogan powered up his 7.7 mile climb up the "Kanc Highway," climbing 1,500 ft along the way. Kent rocked it till the wheels fell off... running down the other side - including three different sections with 7 percent downhill grades, a 22:27 split for 4.8 miles. He reeled in the first straggler - someone from an earlier start wave - and moved us out of the sweeper position.
Ralph followed suit with another 4.8 mile leg, not quite as steep, but still downhill. Those guys did all the hard work, I took over and ran the "junior" 5.7 mile leg - only the second half of which was straight downhill. I caught the Google runner and another team from a earlier start time.
I handed off to Amy (and "Girl Van") at 7:15pm - about 30 minutes behind our projected transition time... Guy Van has headed to N. Conway to get some grub at Friendly's before shimmying down to the next Van-to-Van transition to try and catch a wink...
