Mike Ripley
Hello,
Working on the finishing touches to the course and after 100's of hours of
work we are almost ready for the 5th annual Test of Endurance 50.
The course....outstanding! some new dips and drops..well marked.....great
support for everyone to finish
LOts of fun and you will pace and push yourselves to new limits
Some points to remember
Bring gear....you never know what to expect....so its better to bring a
little extra and not need it
2 huge aide stations with lots of food. The Aide station to do a gear drop
in my opinion would be aide #2 at Panama Canal...half way through. This
could be a small cooler..well labeled or some special food, bottles,
ect...we will take care of it as long as it is in the gym the morning of the
race.
We will be having some pre-filled bottles and jam and peanut butter and
other tasty food on the course and after.
Once again we will be having the massage therapists from Century Sports
massage at the race and 5 minutes are included with your entry. Last year
only 25% of you used this and please do so after you get cleaned up.....for
you fast guys and gals it can make the time go by until awards.
9am sharp for the mass start.....
register by mail soon or online
You can still register and or pick up your packet in the gym the night
before from 5-7pm at the blodgett gym
Yes camping is available.....behind the Blodgett Cafe. The cafe is now
closed, but you can camp there.*Please rsvp *
Services for the most part are in Philomath and Hotels are in Corvallis.
If you want a custom race plate with your name and team name.....I will be
issuing them based on all entries received by Sunday night......they go to
the printer Monday am.
Here are the top 100 riders and times from 2008.......you will be issued
this number if you enter...so defend your spot and or bust into the top 100
after this years TOE 50.
Overall cash purse is 1000.00 as of right now between men and
women.....could be 2000.00 as registration is ahead of 2008. The team cash
purse is 500.00 for both the open division and the master division, for
first place. remember the course record of 16:02 set by S & M in 2006 is up
for grabs and the team who beats the record and is the fastest will receive
a 1000.00 bonus Team Cash purse..thats 1500.00.....you split it up how you
want among your team. Last year S & M missed the course record by 3
minutes......who will win this year
