It has been several years since I have attended the George Navigator Club (GNC), which is traditionally held over the MLK holiday weekend. As I was rounding into shape in the fall, I put this even ton the schedule, especially after seeing that there was a Friday Sprint added…four event long weekend, what could be better?! Well, that and not having to load up my van with a ton of results display supplies…
Flew into Atlanta, Georgia this morning, and then drove to Whitesburg area, to the McIntosh Reserve, the Sprint location.
Paid the $5 park entrance fee and documented the transaction...
…and onto the meet pavilion.
Go figure, the first people I see but the ladies from the Aleksieva family – Petya, Nicole (F10), and Diana (F18), from QOC. Always nice to see familiar faces...
The next person was McIntosh himself…well, maybe not.
Someone I see less often is Martha Carr, who was the Start line call up volunteer for Friday-Sunday’s events.
Back to business…
And then one more photo. Now go away.
With a couple of hours until my start, I scoped out the Sart…
And then the Finish.
Paying attention to what I could see from viewing area was helpful later on.
