GNIRRRR 2008

The Great Northern Iowa Radical River Run Race took place over the weekend. My teammates were Ben and Heather and we enjoyed the "organized chaos" as our tee-shirts read, on Saturday morning. The fog was thick which added to the mysteriousness of the event! It involved 10 teams that had to run 4 miles, canoe 3 miles, portage 1/2 mile and complete 4 mystery events which involved carrying eggs, croquet, basketball, and cutting open a pumpkin to use it as a pale to collect water and dump into a 5 gallon bucket. Rather than try to explain further, I'll let the pictures tell the story. It is truly a one of a kind event that has grown in interest...3 teams in year one, 6 teams in year 2 and ten teams in year 3.
