Generation Gap has been hovering at 5th place. I got in a quick lap then another slow one, Noelle is up there now. Andrew just walked in, he’s gunning for 35,000 verts. Looks like Hill and Faust are going to easily break 50,000. Amazing is the only word. Polly just walked in, she’s still moving! Moon is going down and the eastern sky has a faint glow. It’s super cold, must be about 5 below zero, but the short laps downhill keep the wind burn at bay. We’ll try to pull a few more laps but it’s getting tough with the sleep deprivation. More later.
