BEAR 100 MILE RUN -It is raining outside and I'm sitting here waiting on some aid station workers to bring me drop bags from their aid station. This weekend, I helped my dad as we went aid station to aid station while helping out with the Bear 100 mile race. My dad was the aid station coordinator and took supplies to each of the different stations. It was amazing to see how many people it takes to make something like this happen and work. Under normal conditions, it takes 5-10 people per station. Under crazy weather conditions, it could take even more. My hat goes off to all those who help and make the event go. Some of the volunteers give between 2 hours to 48 hours. Some of the directors and captains give days and days leading up to, during, and then cleaning up from the events. It is amazing. -Because the Bear 100 is a mountain foot race, it has a number of semi complicated pieces. The aid stations each use and have Ham radio operators who help with communications. These guys help to check people (runners) in and out of the aid stations. They talk between the different aid stations and camps. They play a very valuable role in the overall success of the event. -I would love to use elements of time, inside of adilas, to help track the runners and data pieces that are needed. It would be really cool to handle the event, the registration, the data tracking, the event results, the check in/outs, the DNF's (did not finish), the DNS's (did not start), and also the virtual progress (in real time) of the runners. I think it could be a fun project. -We could use barcodes, events, checkpoints, mobile devices, radio data channels, eCommerce, elements of time, invoicing, CRM, etc. We've got lots of pieces, it would just be taking the time to put the package together. |
