This first race ended up being a bit more work than anticipated, but since they all are maybe i just need to adjust my expectations a bit... not that different from a 100 mile run or 24h adventure race, you tend to expect it to be easier, then after the race tend to forget how hard it was. So note to self, probably forgotten in a couple of days.I went out there very early saturday, set the major part of the course, took an italian shower (
sorry, a term i grew up with in Switzerland, basically drying yourself off with a towel after sweating profusely and applying copious amounts of perfume and deodorant, all set!), then looked over the maps with a headlamp haning out in the car all evening, and sleeping in the back of the car before getting up at 4.30AM to get HQ set up.

Sure enough then there was also taking down CPs after the race, though that was a great team effort from many of our volunteers as well!
The race went well, teams had a lot of fun, all CPs were set accurately and the weather was phantastic. One down, many, many more to go!
