Line?  What line?  I don't even know what you guys are talking about...

How CAN we get more hot water in the showers?  I'd support any such effort.  And I note that the Town of Telluride spent something like a quarter of a million dollars on the new bleachers at Warner Field (that's just what I heard, anyway) so I know they've got the funds to improve the bath houses.

I've spent many a night in line and ran a few tarps in the past couple of years. it's a team effort. Someone gets the number, and then the faster people run.
Thumbs Up

Some runners are faster (and better looking) than others, imho, and it seems to work for most?

There should be more people doing tarp run in tutus.  No doubt. 

We should be less focused on how the line works, and more focused on how we can actually execute the tarp run with serious festi-style.  I, for one, will be running in my chicken suit again this year on Thursday.  Anyone got an egg costume?

Do you think randomization would lead to scalping??  Just a thought.

 Thumbs Up Thumbs Up amen to running with serious festi-style, Bevin. Now you got me thinking about potential ideas.

About that egg costume, how realistic do you want to execute the chicken-egg concept? That may not work for me depending on the execution... Rolleyes

Hey Billy, I think the chicken and egg thing could be pretty good.  I also have that gorilla suit but I never found anyone with a banana costume to do tarp run with.   :hop

Now the gorilla and banana thing could be funny, too, except the gorilla suit is hotter than heck.

I do not recommend any early morning sprinting, at altitude, with a hangover, in a sweltering gorilla suit.  That's the voice of experience talking.   

Not to mention the whole living up to the sage advice of Camp Run-A-Muck thing.  Namely, "Do Epic Sh*t!"

What, you got an entire room full of extra costumes?  You had that spare chicken suit last year.  How many people have a "spare" chicken suit?  Hilarious!   Medal

The gorilla suit option is DEFINITELY weather dependent.  We are having a very late spring this year so would not be surprised if temperatures are below average which makes the gorilla suit viable.

One of our crew has a bumble bee outfit.  Anyone got a flower suit?

Now we're talking!  This is the type of tarp line discussion that I believe is really worthwhile!   Cheers
