Re: Let's hear it for La !
Thanks. It was pretty tough, but I got it done. Getting up early for days in a row was one of the hardest parts.

This broken wing will fly again
One fine day
This blackbird's mute gonna sing again
One fine day
So all you sinners come out
And all you drunkards crawl out
Come into the light of one fine day
This broken wing will fly again
One fine day
This blackbird's mute gonna sing again
One fine day
So all you sinners come out
And all you drunkards crawl out
Come into the light of one fine day

Good work!
The four super early days in a row is what turns me off from Dopey, actually! The extra 5 and 10km might be an extra 15km, but, the two extra early mornings and logistics.....well.....that's a commitment!
i run for me.

The full Dopey results are posted, but they're in a pdf file, sorted alphabetically, with no total combined time or age group rankings. Why have a "challenge" and not have rankings?
My half time for the marathon was 4 min slower than my half-marathon the previous day, but I ran pretty even first and second halves in the marathon. Full report to follow when I'm home and have a proper keyboard to type on instead of this tablet.

Re: Let's hear it for La !
okay - I just found the results.
La - you rocked those races!! WOW!!
(and, now I understand what you meant about the half times).
I'm considering Goofy for next year (or the year after) - you've really set down a good challenge for the two races!

Yes, technically he did, but that was based on us simply looking at the times posted for the top 10 guys in his age group and seeing where they placed in all four races. They didn't give out any age group awards for any of the races.
It's harder to do for me because I am so much further down in the standings than he is.
