The runners are in LA (or on their way by now). We’re loving the updates we’re seeing from the local crew:

Also loving the attention they’re getting on a national level:

It’s all well deserved for all the hard work they put in to get this far. Check out our own preview, if you haven’t already.
We’ll offering updates and insights during the race from the comforts of the SISU team party. We thought about making the trip out to LA, but something about ditching our wives on Valentine’s Day weekend for a race that we weren’t running ourselves did not seem like a good idea. Looks like I’ll need my own OTQ to make the next one.
