I had to squish all mine into one, I thought no one would want to keep reading.

I think I'd have a freak-fest.<br /><br />Those endurance sports that keep you awake for way longer than you should be are really pretty cool. I'm so glad you got to experience this.

So if you count them as one team of 4, then Wedali took 3rd.
