I went to the Fuel Altered Classic Saturday, here are some pics!

The event is sponsored by Chuy's mesquite broiler restaurant, so I stopped by before to gets some eats:

they did a tremendous job of supporting the event

I ordered the mahi tacos and they were very good!

Hardcore. Only a few of us stayed till 2 a.m. in the cold to watch the semi-finals.

I left around 2:30a.m. and I don't know if the teams stayed to keep running the race. There were also still a bunch of NDChallenge racers in the lanes at that time.
