On the way up North today, I came across a gigantic relay race that appeared to have the entire province out in support.\u00a0 Turns out it was the Cabot Trail Relay Race, a 48-hour team relay race across 185 miles of the northern coast.\u00a0 Teams of 17 spend the off-shifts shuttling up the course to cheer on fellow runners.\u00a0 While I wasn’t able to take any real pictures of the indescribably unique form encouragement these supporters gave (let’s just say it entailed overweight men in spandex body suits dancing, a gigantic mouse mascot, pirates, lobsters, and a LOT of cowbell), it created quite the scene.\u00a0 Later in the day I came across Mark Cambell, an ‘ultramarathoner’ who attempted to run the full 185 miles on his own.\u00a0 While I didn’t realize it at the time I passed him, it turned out the press at the top of the hill was there because he had fallen ill and was about to give up.\u00a0 He ran approx. 96 miles before being shuttled off to the hospital.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"Race<\/a>

Of course the only picture I manage to capture is of the most normal race supporters<\/p><\/div>\n

Another day, another encounter with a “World’s Largest….” site:<\/p>\n
