Photos from the 1999 Cabot trail running relay held May 29th, and 30th.
The race was started about 10 years ago as a way to promote the region for
tourism. The first leg starts at 7am on Saturday and continues through the night
untill the last leg which starts at 8:45am, Sunday morning. Each leg starts
at a predetermined time. The Bangor based MAINE-IACS, which I was a part of,
finished third.

These photos were shot on an 8mm camcorder and captured with
an Iomega Buz card. This accounts for their less than great quality.
