The 'House of Hope' Opens By Rich McManus
M O R E . . . Giving Bldg. 1 the Run-Around Largest Relay Race Ever Attracts Hundreds By Rich McManus
Lots of things are more important than winning the 21st NIH Interinstitute Relay, which this year attracted a record 100 teams of five runners each. Having a clever team name and a distinctive T-shirt design are essential, as is having a large cadre of colleagues on hand to cheer you on and document your performance with digital cameras and videocams. Having your own bagpiper is extremely classy, as demonstrated by the team Western Blobs.
