Transrockies: Calm Before the Storm

As of Sunday night, most of the crew and volunteers have arrived in Buena Vista, Colorado. Volunteer check in happened earlier today at the historical museum and we were treated to some pretty cool gear, including: crew tech tees, Gore-Tex windstopper jacket, and Sportiva trail shoes.

We had a "happy hour" of sorts starting at 7:30pm with beer and pizza at the local campground and it was nice to sit around the campfire getting to know the other volunteers which includes: race timing, tent setup/teardown, catering, course marking, and many other jobs.

The athletes arrive tomorrow (Monday) and registration is open from 12pm-5pm. It will be great to meet the athletes: 150 teams of 2 people running the 6 day race, and 100 solo runners running the 3 day race.

Get a good night's sleep because tomorrow, here we go!
