It will be interesting to hear what it's like competing in such a large rogaine in unfamiliar terrain. I wonder what the local "race food" will be like. Enjoy!

Is it too late for me to come just for the camping and breakfast beer? :-)

That's pre-breakfast beer... entirely different :-)

Wow, that's an impressive menu at any event. It wasn't exactly designed for a vegetarian like yourself! Even as a meat eater, I'd find that pretty heavy. It's interesting to see what is considered normal race food in a different country.

P.S. I'm terribly jealous of you going to this event, in case that's not obvious!
