Just kidding...Kelly V will be creating "The Bibles", which are hardcopy notebooks that each Van Cap'n will receive. These Bibles will contain your legs (assignments.. not actual body parts), tattoos with your directions*, and other good stuff. In the meanwhile, for those of you can't wait that long, here's the lowdown on how things are gonna go down!
6:00am - Bright and Ugly! Kelly V(aka "Trooper" or "The BookKeeper") will lead us off at the start line. Our journey begins at Lake Benson Park in Garner. Van 2, be there to cheer us off, then go carb up before your legs!
Van 1 is orange, Van 2 is yellow. Also, times are approx, Van Cap'ns should keep their phones handy so that they can text one another as we approach one of the spots where we meet. The idea was that we could overlap slightly so that we didn't feel like two separate teams running the same race.

Other stuff - in your Bible, there will be little temporary tattoos for each leg. It includes the name of the leg, the points, and each turn along with the distance to each turn (or they did last year). There will also be Tuna Run signs along the route, but some jerk might yank one out, and you'd better know where the heck you're going, so wear the tattoo. FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS.. we messed a few up last year (duh!).
