Cool! $200k. Hand over the cash! 💰💰💰
Not too late to enter. Bump it up.
We need a perfect ballot bonus. If you pick the top 3 correctly in all four races and pick the winning time correctly to the second in Chicago, you’ll win $200,021 payable over equal installments for 20 years.
ridiculous
Are we going to get post-Chicago score updates, or will it all come in one fell swoop after Boston?

wejo: 2:06:12, 2:20:20
rojo: 2:08:30, 2:23:30
Jonathan Gault: 2:06:12, 2:23:07
Soprano: 2:08:37, 2:20:37
matthewXCountry: 2:05:02, 2:20:57

Just realized I had the closest time prediction, only 3 seconds off guessing the women's winner and time. I couldn't have guessed the way it was run though, just thought the weather/wind would take more of a toll.
One of these days I should write a script to auto-grade the prediction contests before LRC can get to it 🤔
it's updated now anyways:

looks like the $200K is safe yet again.
