This was the third year that this unique event was held in our area. There were two options this year: a 10K race with a rest period before the next part, a 5K, with the total racing time used to determine the winners. The new option was a 5K followed by a 3K. John started 12 minutes late but the race was chip timed.

Wooly Walkers Mark Landry 10:11:51

HRW had three teams for the 2015 version of the B2B Relay, ranging in age from 16 to 81, with 14 veterans and one rookie, Karen Swisher, who was very swift. Phil Jacobs and Alan Poisner have now completed 13 and 14 Brew to Brew races, respectively, since 2001. There were a number of changes in distances of some legs this year with two legs being 1.0 or more miles longer than in 2014 (7 and 10). This year’s race was marked by a rainy morning and some lost walkers. The Wooly Walkers car almost missed finding the first exchange point but, thanks to some cell-phone navigational help, got there in time for the exchange to Phil. However he followed some other racers who missed a turnoff and did not arrive at the start of leg 3. As in the past we ended up at the Mad Greek restaurant afterwards for a victory celebration. See the PICTURES link for photos before, during and after the race.
