Results from the Odyssey One Day

Given the lack of concise information, it's hard to divine results from the Odyssey One Day Extreme race this past weekend; the leaderboard is here but it takes a lot of effort to sort out the results.  Here is a summary based on my reading of the leaderboard:
  • 27 teams started the race
  • 21 teams were a DNF (did not finish) or DQ (disqualified)
  • 3 teams finished the full course 
    • Lightspeed (the winner, a coed team)
    • Checkpointzero (2nd, a coed team)
    • Nads (3rd, a 2-person mens team)
  • This leaves 3 teams not on the full course, including us on Team HRAdventure
    • They've awarded 1st place on the shorter course to Misguided (coed team)
    • They've awarded 2nd place on the shorter course to Team HRAdventure (coed team)
    • They've awarded 3rd place on the shorter course to Whos Your Daddy (3-men team)
When you do the math, a 5th place overall finish for us isn't too shabby (or 4th place if you just consider the official 3-person coed teams).
