Phoenix

Saturday, May 18, 2002

Our Phoenix event was a great way to kick off the race seaon. Thanks to all those who helped and participated. Check out our article in the Arizona Republic.

Congrats again to Paul and James Bonnett, the father/son team who won our pre-season race as well as our first official Phoenix race.

And to wrap things up, this from Phoenix Challenger Tyra: "Here's a picture we thought we'd share for your website. Looks like Barry is enjoying the race more than we were at this point!" In case you're wondering, "Barry" is Barry Starr, former Arizona senator and statue in the checkpoint photo.
