One More Plain Update

– ok, jamie just finished … at ~10:42am this morning … for an approximate elapsed

  time of ~29:42 … if i have done my math right …

– jeff, larry, and mauricio have all passed through the chickamin tie check point …

  which is ~70+ miles into the race … don’t know the exact mile mark for that check point …

– elapsed times for them at that point are:

  jeff: 24:10

  larry: 24:12

  mauricio: 25:32

– chickamin tie is kind of the "point of no return" … if you make it through there, you should

  be able to finish … the next check point is alder creek (7.5m from the finish), and then

  deep creek on the return (1.5m from the finish) …

– search and rescue folks said it looked like the three were basically running together,

  helping each other, in order that they would all finish … this is definitely true for jeff and

  larry …  but mauricio would have been an hour back at chickamin … if the times on the

  spread sheet were correct …

– anyway … all three should be able to finish …

– weather is real nice here now … clear  blue sky, and temps going up … it was pretty

  cold last night … jamie said he was cold, even with all his stuff on …

– will try to get one more email off to you when they pass through alder creek …

– right now it looks like they will have finishing times of anywhere from 34 hours … to …

  35+ hours …  but, they should be able to make it …

– tim stroh came in second … he was the guy that stayed with us in that big cabin here

  at thousand trails …
