Does anyone have a website for last years results of Dalton? We have a team and are trying to decide if we should register in the 5 person coed or 5 person open (200+) we have some old guys. Not that we are going win anything, but it could improve our odds.
The only results I have are the results for our class:

Anyone have a spare volunteer? We are having a hard time convincing someone to drive 2 1/2 hours to stand in the woods for 4 1/2 hours that it would be fun. Still have a month though to find someone.

What's your team's name?
We're thinking "Fluff's Travel" or "Fluffhead"....the name idea coming from a 23 year old who missed the hippie train by 20 years :rolleyes: , but we thought it was pretty funny so I think that's what we're using

As opposed to the Phish song(s) by the same name?

"We sure got some powerful pills! OH YEEAAAAHH!!!"

Haha ya that's what I was implying, hes a hippie wanna be who missed being one by 2 decades, so all he listens to is like the dead and phish and bands like them, so the name came from that song

Yeah, I am sure they'll be real interested in a muddy, dirty dude that smells like the worst BO ever mixed in with ass


:rolleyes:
True, but a young smelly dude might have a better shot than an older smelly dude.

With this morning's weigh in, I have successfully dropped 10 pounds, going from 179 to 169. :thumb: I know that's not a huge weight loss, but it'll help. My goal was 10 pounds, but that was so easy I have reset my goal for 15 pounds. I've gone from a 34 waist to a 32.

Congrats, I had a goal of dropping about 10 pounds also but I haven't made the progress I hoped.

I miss beer. To lose weight, I just started eating less/better. Very little alcohol, no dining out, watch the sodium, and just eat less.

I just read this [about Dalton] on mtbr. Is this for real? :dead:

"There is a lung-seering 4-mile climb with the first 1/2 mile of it being some mild technical singletrack and the remaining on an open gravel/fireroad. It could take folks about 15-20 mins. to finish that climb! After that, it's all down hill from there!"

I'm in trouble....
