Burrito Relay 2012

The 2nd Annual Burrito Relay was run with all the splendor and pageantry we have come to expect by one of the most highly anticipated athletic events of the year!  After another hotly contested race, we have some results…

(For the uncultured masses who are not aware of the intricacies of the Burrito Relay, the Monta Vista track & field uses the standard international BR rules:  This is a 6400M relay, run as 16×400, with teams of two–each teammate runs eight legs of 400M each.  The winner in each division are those that most closely predict how long it will take them to run 6400M.)

And now for the results.  Congratulations to all our victors!  And no complaining about the judging no matter how amateurish.

By the way…great workout!

Fastest boys’ team:  ‘Team Salsa’ Michael Lu/Ajay Rajamani 20:50

Fastest girls’ team:  ‘Ba Shi Ba’ Jenny Xu/Angella Qian 23:15 (New BR all-time record!)

Fastest co-ed team:  Pearl Law/Arvind Rao 21:37

And for the Burrito winners:

Closest prediction boys’ team:  ‘Flying Gophers’ Steven Ting and John Hsiao–2 seconds!!! (after an appeal to the judge after an apparent coding problem, the successful appeal resulted in victory!) (New BR Record!)

Closest prediction girls’ team:  ‘Avocado’ Maedha Begur/Manali Begur 5 seconds!

Closest prediction co-ed team:  ‘Shut up and Sweat!” Bridget Gottlieb/Shivam Khanna 11 seconds! (Bridget Gottlieb’s second consecutive Burrito victory!)
