NACHOMAN 2008 POST RACE

Wow!! Thanks to everyone who showed for Nachoman 2008. Weather was perfect and a great time was had by all. We began with a swim of around 1000m, biked 73km, ran 8.1km then completed the beer mile. Other than coughing up some beer foam and dry heaves, the race went off without a hitch. Bear Chair Dave stole the show almost scoring a huge upset driven by his mad beer-gunning skills. Dave B was able to hold off the challenger and score the victory. Tim Graves came out of somewhere to take 3rd place with a crazy sprint to the finish.

Post race nachos were very well received thanks to Peter's stewardship and Marty's work ethic bringing out the nachos with the baked-on salsa.

I would personally like to thank everyone for their efforts ensuring Nachoman was a success. Especially Michelle who acted as timekeeper, SAG Wagon driver, Aid Station volunteer, Photographer and having the courage to hang around the beer mile finish area!

If anyone who took pictures can send them to me at thomasdabek@gmail.com it would be much appreciated.

12 months away from Nachoman 2009!

NACHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Tom, for such a great event. It was the race of the year. I'll start my new training program tomorrow. I'm going for a win at the beer mile next year.

Nachooooo!

Thanks for planning and hosting Tom (and for Wendy for putting up with the Nacho Gang!).
I do have three pics and some video of the Beer Mile that I will put together. However, I have received some 'legal advice' that certain individuals might not want their antics posted on the internet. I will distribute these to the participants in another format.

Nachoooooo!
