Scenes from the Scene (so far)

Posted by Harlow

Pictures say more than words.  Here are a few from the scene while we are not out in the mountains.  Thanks for all the great shots, Dad!

Scoul, Switzerland


Senior Master leaders.  These guys are 100+ years old between them and can still hammer!

For 20 Euros, Jordi will work magic.  It's all platonic for sure, Gina.


Salomons, compression tights, cobblestones and trekking poles = European.


After the 53k Stage 2. Not sure this is what they intended when they built it.



We all just call them "the Girls". And most of us are getting "Girled".


Patrick's wife Heidi at the start of Stage 1. Every stage starts off with "Highway to Hell".


Our friend David from the Barcelona team.  They load up for every stage on rice and salted ham. 



Finishing ALWAYS feels good! 


Patrick's toe. The biggest injury problem so far.



Patrick gets a hug from daughter Grace of the Team Chugach support crew.



A lot of teams do the bungie chord.  This is a tough Kiwi mixed team.



Speaking bad Spanish.


Runner's camp.  Glad we're not staying here!


Runner's camp.


Effort.
