      Glad to hear this!  I was working in bag pickup there yesterday and as of 12:30 when my shift ended, which was 5 hours after the start, they hadn't come thru yet so I was hoping they were going to make it.

          I'm glad it went well.  I can't even imagine the logistics of keeping 62 people tethered together for a mile, much less 26.2x that distance.  The potty stops issue had to be interesting.  I love that Jenny was able to participate with the group for a stretch.
