Big Sky Distance Project members placed their money where their mouths were by wagering a dollar each to back up their time predictions. BSDP team times were predicted as well as the winner of the battle between the teams Queen and King of the hill. Queen Nicole ruled the hill in the race, but King Jeff collected the spoils by prognosticating supremely. Prediction errors were unduly inflated across the board as a result of the Marathon course being about 1K long

The prediction contest also had a loser. That disgrace was literally placed upon the head of Nikki Kimball who had to accept the group's decision that she wear perfumed, sparkly lotion in a public setting. You can't smell her here, but how does Nikki look in sparkles?
