Written Course Description, as of 8/20/99

The Distances listed below are pretty accurate. Back in 1998 we "wheeled" the entire course. If there is a more accurate - cheap way to measure the course - let us know. Otherwise, we're just assuming we did a good job and have accurately measured the course.And a special thanks to Dave Timmer -one of the Co-race directors for his work on this aspect of the race and all the other crucial things he does to make the race the successfull event that it is.
