Second Airing of Race Across the Sky

November 12 is the date for the second showing of Race Across the Sky. Locations to be announced.

This is great news for those of who showed up to see the movie but got sent home due to technical problems with the live feed at the theater!

It was so frustrating to buy tix way in advance and look forward to it, then sit for 20 minutes in the theater while they tried to fix the problems. If they had figured it out right before the movie, they could have told us at the door, which would have given us a chance to go to another theater during the panel discussion and possibly catch most of the movie.

Sheboygan WORS Pics

I was thinking about my bumping a tree on my second lap, falling left towards the river bank, hearing the volunteer gasp something like "oh, no", from above, and subsequently almost falling in.... and how I had so many layers on (start temp: 31 ish degrees...) I might have sunk, never to be seen again... but that didn't happen, luckily, and I spent the rest of the day taking photos at the race. It sounds like several of the rest of you went for a swim.... brrrrr!

There are two sets of photos posted from WORS #12, the Wigwam Challenge in Sheboygan yesterday, October 11.

Set 1 includes Equalizer photos from the third and fourth lap of the Elite/Comp race, podiums from the sport and citizen race, and the elite/comp starts. The awards pics didn't aren't so great due to the backlighting from the sun.

Set 2 includes the Elite (Cat 1) and Comp awards and the Raffle at the end of the day. And an awesome sequence of the WORS start line tower being tipped over and dismantled. I had never watched this before and found it kind if spellbinding in a weird sort of way.
