cross-post:

BRING PENCILS OR PENS! and Bags/Baskets/Trailers to Haul stuff (really a backpack or messenger-bag will be fine for each team) and ID would be good for the bar at the finish line.

Show Up Early! I'm not waiting around Sherwood for long. Teams will be made at the start if you don't have a partner yet. Finish Line announced at Sherwood.

Can't wait to see your costumes. Almost done with all the printing, its going to be fantabulous!

I am envious of this Halloween race and my being stuck in the snow in Vermont and having to drive back home to Boston tonight. BUT I am writing to see if anybody would be so kind as to let me curl up on their floor for a couple of days in December. I am running the Hellgate 100k in Virginia and figured I would make a trip out of the race spending a couple days in DC beforehand. I'm from Michigan and Utah, so have yet to see the sights in DC, so the closer to the tourist drags the better. Will pay for my space in bike tubes, pizza, or falafel for all housemates. Thank you much.
