First week is complete! Good job everyone! The race began in Westerly, RI, birthplace to Holly, Julie B, and Jenni!
Here's where the teams have ended up after a week of racing:
Greased Lightning has a good lead with 750 miles. They've landed in High Point, NC! Not far behind are two teams: She-Power (with 570 miles) and Racing Rhetoricians (510 miles). She-Power is resting for the night in Lynchburg, VA--home place of racer Stacie Dusetzina--while Racing Rhetoricians have paused in Verona, VA. A few miles back is the team with the longest name ever: Team Alpha Super Awesome Cool Dynamite Wolf Squadron in Mt. Jackson, VA (470 miles). Hanging out near the Baltimore (and maybe checking out /The Wire/ filming sites) are The Atalantas (396 miles). Finally, Get 'er Done is regrouping in beautiful Wilmington (260 miles).
Greased Lightning has laid down the gauntlet for the rest of the teams! They're 180 miles ahead of the 2nd place team, but not so far ahead that someone can't catch up next week!
REVISION: Team Alpha Super.... has advanced to 2nd place with 600 miles!
Keep up all the good work!
