Innovative race concept
The Pod Trod MP3-Mile Challenge is a trail race being held in May in Lawrence, KS. The race will have three or more 5k courses, but start and finish at the same place and time. According to the website, participants will download one of the course's instructions in MP3 format the night before or the morning of the race. It will be the "luck of the draw" as to which course is more difficult. Folks will have to pick up tokens along the race course to prove they completed the correct course.
I especially like the awards:
- Trail Savant: 1st place M/F for each different course
- Semi-TrailTarded
- Special Idiot
- Blind as a Cave-dwelling Fish
- Instuctionally Hearing-impaired
- Rock-banging Neo-Luddite
- Lost beyond all Possible Reason
Pretty cool idea. I wonder if folks with a Garmin will have an advantage?
