The race has begun! Team Pirana got checked in and prepped Weeble for his first run. They checked the van and made sure everything was ready to go. Then it was time for the start. Everyone walked up the hill to the Old Home and got ready for the big start. There were only 4 […]

Well, Team Pirana finished the Brew to Brew (or the Punisher Bunny as they now lovingly call it) Of course, Mav (solo run for he whole 43) did his customary run across the finish line half naked, while BFG completed the relay team run (of course 3 Piranas ran 65 miles total). Then it was […]

The last relay exchange point and aid station is at a railroad crossing. While T3 and Sweet Tee waited for BFG and Mav they saw at least 3 trains. Each time the runners and crew vehicles had to wait. Fun. BFG and Mav came through, got what they needed and headed out onto the levy […]

Two legs left to go. Sweet Tee is finished with his 20+ and came in running fast and strong. The aid station is at a really cool little farm. If the weather were nice it would be great to hang around watching the runners come and go. As it is, it is too cold and […]

More pics from the battle front. Not a pretty picture, but we love him anyway. T3 navigating, crewing, and whatever. This an accurate representation of Mav’s attitude. Captain watching over Mav. The infamous boat crossing. Liferaft crossing that is. Captain Morgan says, “bunnies don’t like boats.” The weather gets better (read worse) every minute. At […]

The trio of Mav, BFG and Sweet Tee are heading across Small River and then into Linwood. The bridge is out, so there is a boat to carry the runners over the river while the crew vehicles have to drive the long way around. The rain has turned to sleet and slush and the temperature […]

T3 is finished and Mav is still moving forward. Sweet Tee joined in on leg 4 and will continue until the end of leg 9. BFG is starting now at leg 6 and will run to the end. The start was cool with a light wind, but the weather has gone steadily down hill. Currently […]

Well, Captain Morgan did not behave last night and therefore the boys are a little tired this morning. Mav disappeared into the bathroom about an hour ago and no one has seen or heard from him since. BFG is guzzling G2 and mumbling something about getting rehydrated. T3 is staring blankly out the window into […]

Captain Morgan was seen out and about in the Power & Light District. Namesake photo op: Sign of things to come: Steve at Vinino’s was very accommodating and the food was fantastic. Unfortunately, Mav gave up salmon for lent, but that didn’t stop BFG from ordering the Chef’s special. Sweet Tee had and tomato and […]

They started this. The web site says, “2009 Pass the Bunny”. So we are going to pass a bunny. But it can’t be just any bunny. We found a cute little furry white bunny and decided he would look better orange. So…. It is amazing what you can do with a box of food coloring. […]
