With over 90% of the race complete, it's still a race. Maybe next year we get a PPV.

Stanford:-----------6:46-------123 miles

Red Team Too:------6:51-------118 miles

Red Team:----------6:44-------116 miles


Stanford has a fair lead, but Red Team is set to challenge. Because of staggered start times, the first over the finish line is not necessarily the winner. Stanford has been on the track longer than Red Team, but has finished more of the course. You can track current progress here - click Status Board on the left-hand navigation panel.

Of the 23 finalists, 16 have been eliminated (DNFs). Of the teams left operating on the first half of the course (who drew late starts) none seen in position to challenge the top three listed above.
