Re: RC: RC: First vs. BC

[Heidi Sowards <ribbitttreefrog@yahoo.com>]

Ooooh, ask, please! Inquiring minds want to know! And
really, wouldn't we all find it interesting, enlightening
and might teach us something. I could only find the last 3
years for Tevis:

1997 - the first place finisher finished with a time=14:32
       BC went to the 6th place finisher with a time=16:55

1998 - 1st place finisher finished with a time= 15:44
       BC went to 3rd place finisher (Ruby/mule)=15:59

1999 - 1st place finisher finished with a time= 14:00
       BC went to 7th place finisher with a time= 16:05


Just call me curious!! 
(Or as my mother might call me: a sh*tdisturber!! Good ole
mom!)
