Sound to Sea - what could be better?  It was an amzing day that could only be properly described by Marc in his weekly recap, which is also posted here.  

Please see the below link to a google photos album with many pictures from the event.  We couldn't be happier with how the day turned out. #Sound2Sea

Sound to Sea!!!

We actually pulled it off.  NMR teams and Ragnar teams made the 50 mile journey beginning in Oyster Bay weaving through Nassau County (slight sliver of Suffolk) all the way down to Jones Beach. It was a great day of teamwork and comradery. Anyone who has run the Ocean to Sound in the past knows how much fun this is and also how tricky some of the route segments are. Got to hand it to you guys, Christian Forie and Christopher Jacobi, you totally made the dream happen. Everything really came together for such an overwhelming type of race. Awesome swag bags, shirts, tattoos for the runners, pregame bagels, post game hero spread, and cold drinks and much more. Thank you guys once again for an incredibly successful off the grid Sound to Sea race. Real guerilla style!

Let's grow for next year. We all have lots of ideas.

As for the race itself, there's too much to fully recap here but Jeffrey Odin posted a link to a ton of pictures and videos. So check them out and enjoy the amusement. We were very fortunate that it was just overcast most of the day until the final leg when it began to rain entering our finish line party at the beach. Cold wind and some rain never stops us from enjoying the festivities.

Some highlights.

Team - Local Legends won first place with some blistering NMR speed demons tearing up each leg. We did have an advantage being veteran medal winners of past Ocean to Sound races. It's all about fantastic teamwork!

Team - Legs of the Hidden Temple 2 won the most spirited award. I mean they rented a sprinter van for crying out loud. Hand decorated it too. This is a Ragnar team that knows how to get it done. How could they not win the spirit award.
