12/06/2011 - POST-RACE UPDATE
A HUGE thank you to all the Castlewood 8-Hour racers who participated this weekend! We hope you found the course interesting, challenging, and fun with a couple of added twists! Congratulations to the team Alpine Shop for an incredible race and the overall winner of the Castlewood 8-Hour!
Ninety-three teams consisting of 270 racers headed out on a SPECTACULAR weather day racing to the finish line. Forty teams cleared the entire course! That is remarkable!
Bonk Hard Racing has OUTSTANDING volunteers! If it were not for quality volunteers, we would not be able to produce quality races. No bones about it. We are so deeply thankful for the those of you who volunteered at Castlewood. Your contributions made this one of the most amazing races yet. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
We also would like to thank The Wyman Center for lending us the perfect venue for Race Headquarters. The Wyman staff went out of their way to make the accommodations perfect for our large group. Not to mention the spectacular setting, in which we were so fortunate to absorb all day long!
Also many thanks to the St Louis County Parks, the Missouri Department of Natural Resources, the City of Eureka, and the City of Wildwood. This race covered a large area and many different governing entities. The support of these organizations, their staff members, police officials, and emergency personnel, allowed us to have a most superior race day!
Thank you to The Hampton Inn for providing out-of-towners with the most comfortable accommodations!
A MONSTROUS BIG thank you goes out to our race presenter, The Alpine Shop, as well as all our sponsors who continue to support us all year long. They include:
Kuat Racks
Columbia Sportswear
nuun
Zanfel
yurbuds
My Sweet Life
Results have been posted to the website. We hope you will enjoy pouring over the detailed data! Analyze it up and get ready to race again at the Bonk Hard Chill, on Feb 18th!
Congratulations to ALL Castlewood 8-Hour racers on a job very well done!!!
Sincerely,
Gary & Ellen Thompson
