What a wonderful run this morning. Thank you Carlos for organizing a great event and for your hospitality. This is the kind of thing I was looking forward to when I signed up for a CFA membership. Couldn't have been a better day....

I have been thinking a lot about this event as it is one of the few times I get to see you guys.
Victoria is a little out of your way, I know, but this minor problem is surmountable.
I highly recomend the shorter option, and have accomodated the "Mainlanders" by having an 11:00am. start, giving you an extra hour to get from Swartz Bay to the start.
I am in the process of re-reading all the course descriptions, to ensure you of course accuracy.
The "Full Monty", an excellent training event for newbie Ultra distance runners, is both challenging and incredably beautiful, but does oblige you to arrive on the Island on the 19th.July as there is no ferry that will get you here for the 7:00am.start.
