Hopefully I'll have a few more blog posts on here: http://theacrace.blogspot.cz
But there are two so far. Kinda a "preview to wuoc" what it is, where it is and what we are racing. And then a short post on my travels here. Working on a post from our middle and relay training today. There is limited internet at the event center but we will try our best to keep you all updated.

The US WUOC Team arrived in the Czech Republic on Thursday. Since then they have been training on the model maps and ran the Sprint Relay prolog. They did quite well, Team A placing 15th (Tori Borish, Jacob Grant, Alison Campbell, Charles Whitaker), time was 41:23 only 5:31 off the winner. The mixed team (Rosalind Hussey of Ireland, James O'Keefe, McKenzie Hudgins, Hans Sitarz) placing 28th with a time of 45:04, 9:51 off the winner.

The Team is off to a good start...Congratulations to to both teams!

We have moved to posting on the general discussion since that is where people were posting about WOC and JWOC so hopefully everyone will notice the WUOC thread and read about our races.
