What a great experience! Thanks to everyone!

I want to thank Quan for being daring enough to register and start all of this; Phi and Thuy for all of their hard work on planning and logistics, making reservations, and picking up the vans; Ashley and Francis for volunteering to run at the last minute; Thuy and Xiaoman for driving for so many hours when I know they were as sleep-deprived as any of us; Kim and Lloyd for picking up those delicious sandwiches downtown when we were all starving.

I was inspired by Homer and Phi for outstanding efforts on their legs; Parker, who finished his leg (the longest and a difficult one) despite the fact that he was in pain; and those who picked up extra legs, especially Long, who ran his greatest distance ever at a remarkable pace.

It was fantastic to meet everyone and the way everyone pitched in to help one another was inspiring. I look forward to doing it again next year!
