RACE T-SHIRT DESIGN:
This year’s T-shirt depicts the 2009 winning team. We would like to start a tradition of depicting previous year winning team into next year’s race T-shirt design using a sketch of a photograph taken during the race (written permission needs to be granted by the winning team). Another incentive to participate in this race! You can also view this year's Bib design.
