2015 B2V Final Results - Team OC

Another year and another B2V Relay Race are behind us.  It was another weekend in the desert of hot days, cold nights, blood, sweat, tears, pride, honor, and camaraderie.  Your Team OC had a great race running in the ultra competitive Mixed category.  We entered the race as team #257 based on our 2014 official race time of 22 hours and 18 minutes.  After completing the 2015 race in 19 hours and 42 minutes we will run the 2016 race as team #221.  We were able to shave off 2 hours and 36 minutes off our time and move up 36 spots! 

This team has been involved in B2V for the last three years.  Initially as an all women's team known as the Desert Divas.  In 2014 (Divas & Dudes) and 2015 (Team OC) they moved into the Mixed category.  No matter which category we run in, we could not do it without the support of our volunteers, follow vehicle drivers, steering committee, family, co-workers, friends and our department's executive management team.  You all support us by buying t-shirts and other apparel and by participating in our annual golf tournament and bowling event.  

You can view the official times of our individual runners below.

We have also included a few photos from race weekend.

Stay tuned for our upcoming fundraisers as we get set for B2V 2016 - March 19th and 20th.

Thank you for your continued support!
