Support team members Carrie, Amy and Rachel slipped out of the cabin to catch the start of the two day event – these folks are either indivuduals or part of a two-person team and they will hopefully complete the run, bike and mountain run stages today and continue with the rest of the race on Saturday.  It looks as though they have a lovely day for the event – lets hope that the weather holds for Jack and Ursula and the rest of the one day comptetitors, though the forecast is still for rain.
