Richard Saunders pics from the finish are pretty cool. If you scroll threw them fast enough, you can see stop motion of peoples facial expressions as they cross the finish.

I guess no one bothered to read their instructions that were in the race packet. It clearly stated that after crossing the finish line, you would receive your feather and have your photo taken.

Padre, your wife races for Niner right? I think I saw her pic in either John's. A bunch of pics didn't get loaded by accident before his first post on STR. Mine included. They should be there now.

I dodged everyone of the folks shooting action shots on the course. I think I'm stealth.

Padre had previously mentioned his wife didn't have a finish line photo. My understanding from his post today was that she wasn't in Mr. Saunders' photos either.

Justin and I actually had TWO finish line photos and plenty from Jordan.

I read the directions, thank you.

Your right...Rachel did come in after you and your wife and Rachel made us aware of it when she saw the preliminary results....for some reason it did not get fixed...I will see if that is something that can still be done to correct it...

I tried to get everyone! There were a couple moments when some big groups finished at the same time and it was tough to get everyone at the line with their time. I also only managed to use the mens room (bushes) once so I didnt miss people finishing! haha

Already fixed, Barry's fast. on another note, has anybody figured out Barry's message on the bottom of the shirts yet? It's seems to be missing a few words/letters, but I have.

Counting Coup - Chris Messina is listed as a woman. He's a rather well built (for a woman) ex cop and may not like this.

I say leave it so we can all listen to him whine about it for a whole year. That makes me giggle just thinking about it. Hehe!
