These events look awesome. Can't wait to see the individual events.
Considering it's supposed to rain and what not, will there be any place where spectators can hang out and stay dry?

Has anyone noticed that 7th-10th is across 4days? or was it a typo meaning the 9th?

That 5K trail run, seems like a lot of pressure for the slowest member of the "team". Seems like more an individual event for the slowest people. Wouldn't it make more sense to take the "teams" total time finish instead of just one individual??

I agree. Why should standards be different for women?

Hate to repeat a previous post, but can you let me know if all events are 2/2 guy/girl? The info is important from a team-member standpoint and we're all probably traveling tomorrow so can we get some info today?

Any hope of these standards videos and event guidelines being released soon? As you know, some of us are traveling a long distance and are leaving soon, and these cabins in Logan don't have internet. Thanks!
