Re: What are the easiest categories to learn?

Re: Staying Alert

This is at best somewhat related, but in one case where I found myself tired during a tournament (as a result of going to sleep at 10 and getting up at 5), splashing water on my face had a positive effect on my performance.

Re: NY/NJ/Surrounding Area, 2014-2015

Re: Lexington (MA) Invitational Tournament

-$15/100 mi. distance discount

-Minimum fee of $60 per team
Is it intentional that a single distance discount brings the price lower than the minimum?
