The "Salt Shakers" had their inaugural race this past Sat. Set 27th at the ITC Triathlon, raising funds for the "Special Olympics". Jim and I ran as a team in the ITC Tri this year and really had a good time. Jim did the 8.5 mile Mountain Biking leg of the race, then we both jumped in a canoe and paddled 2.5 miles around Budd Lake. I did the running part which was a 5k back from Budd Lake to the ITC. We really did have a great time and raised some money for a great cause. I think Jim kind of got the short end of the stick in this one since the mountain biking course was a greuling trail from hell. I know this because I saw lots of blood, mud, and faces that looked like they had been to hell and back, and quite a bit of moaning and groaning from the guys and gals coming off the course. Anyway...the Team Salt is HERE...so BEWARE, we're taking NO prisoners!
