Well, we did it. As a team of 14 people, everyone finished without a wussy wagon! We actually skated an aggressive pace in the final leg to finish very strong. There were no injuries or even minor falls for the first 74.9 miles. However, within sight of the finish line we had two go down. Once we got off the trail and took the street to get the to finish line, first Theo caught some nasty tar patch and skun a knee, then within seconds my skate got stuck in a tar patch and fell on my behind. Oh well, we both finished, raised money for a good cause and met a bunch of great people in the process.
Here's a picture of our great team: Here.
