Official results and pictures

A race well run--official results are here (pdf)! We finished in a little over 20 hours, clocking 6:07s over 197 miles of beautiful Arizona desert. Below are some pictures--see if you can tell when the sunset turns into a sunrise.

Thanks to all of the volunteers (especially those from Future for Kids, the organization that benefited from the race) from the race organizers. And, finally, to the steady hands on the Google1 van wheels, Kerry and Megan.

Done!

We finished around 11 am in Tempe Arizona (near Phoenix). Angela closed it out with a strong kick at the end. We enjoyed the complimentary massages at the end and muscle milk samples to refuel (and get huge). Just had a nice brunch at a nice little spot called U.S. Egg. We finished in first place!

After some food, two hours sleep and the second leg done looks like we are still ahead!

Van 1: zzzzz...

It's been a hard day's night, and now it's time to catch a few winks.  Van 2 has taken over the grind.  If their first set of legs is any indication, we should be further under our projected finishing time (and extending our lead going into the final set of legs).
