- At time 0, which is 6AM, on Apr 18, Van1 shows up the start line which is in Calistoga.
- Registration is completed, and bibs are picked up
- At time 1, which is 7AM, our first runner, Sumi starts running her first leg of 4.8miles
- Anjali drives Van1 over to exchange point one, and Leena, who is runner #2, starts to warm up.
- At time 2, perhaps 8AM, Sumi arrives at exchange point one, and hands off the baton to Leena. And after Leena has started running, Sumi cools down for a few mins. Anjali picks her up, and drives over to exchange point two.
- Leena, one of the stronger runners in our team, breezes through her 4.7 mile first leg, and arrives at exchange point 2 to hand off the baton to Ashok
- At time 3, Ashok starts off at his blistering pace and hands off 40 odd mins later to Karthik V
- Karthik V hands off to Karthik R, and Karthik R eventually hands off to Amit.
- In the meanwhile, Sheshu has shepherded the Van 2 to exchange point 6.
- Dumma starts warming up in the warm Napa valley weather, and Amit comes flying down the trail to hand-off to our marathon-man, Dumma.
- At this point, Anjali and her Van1 team are done with their first leg of the relay. They will shower, eat and rest at the First Baptist Church, 2590, 1st St, Napa.
Van2 does a similar routine as what Van1 does. Perhaps takes about 6 hours to complete their first leg.
And its time for Van1 to take over at the point. Anjali drives over to 7500 Red Hill Rd, Petaluma. Here, Sumi starts to warm up for her second leg (its perhaps 8PM by now). And as Naveen arrives and hands off the baton to Sumi, Van2 is done for the time being. Sheshu drives Van2 to La Luna Inn, on Lombard St, for some much needed rest.
