Congratulations Sue!

Timing / counting appeared to work flawlessly - beeps at every mat crossing, with name, lap count, and distance displayed on a monitor just beyond the mat. The monitor also showed entries for the preceding 5 (?) people who crossed the mat. Additionally, there was a video camera set up to record the action at the line. A monitor in the pavilion showed overall ranking and related info for the entire field in real time. I was impressed that they were able to keep all that stuff up and running with the wind, water and hail howling in off the lake - directed right at the timing and aid tents.

Thats good to hear. Now I hope they are smart enough to keep that all in place for Spring. I think they are continuing the pattern of alternating RDs.
How does one pronounce "Hnat"?
