It is now official – less than 1/2 way through the 12th day of the Great Turtle Race, Stephanie Colburtle the Turtle reached the ‘finish zone’ approximately 10 miles ahead of the nearest contender. Stephanie finishes second overall behind Billie, a female impersonator turtle.
EDIT: according to the ‘Great Turtle Race Update’ I received by e-mail, the finish for second was tighter than I thought.
This just in: Stephanie Colburtle has held off come-from-behind Champiro just long enough to take second place in The Great Turtle Race!
Stephanie propelled into the finish zone to thunderous applause around 7:30 a.m. PST this morning. To the crowd’s delight, Champiro finished in third place one mere mile behind her, a few short hours later.
