There is a vast difference in knowledge and experience.  As per every Race Management seminar I have attended we are losing time against the agenda. This is not a bad thing, but I believe at this level that there is not enough time dedicated to allow participants to ask scenario type questions, hypotheticals, and not enough time is spent on cases.

We have the exam tomorrow, which is in 3 parts. Being the only native mono lingual English speaking participant, I have a time penalty of 10 mins. (They tried to sell this has being a benefit to the non native English speaking participants but I am the disadvantaged minority here amongst the Spanish speaking). Just joking.

Being in Lima has been a tremendous experience I would recommend to any aspiring race officer, get out of your club, get out of your state and just do anything, anywhere.

Lunch today - potato with cheese sauce decorated with an olive, egg and lettuce leaf.
