Leo Swinamer Sr. attempted a return this year from retirement, but cracked his pumpkin during training before the race. His Nephew took his lucky hat, and the title this year. But here I am at the finish line, mostly dry, still sporting my "Gourdbusters" logo on my sleeve. I finished 9th place, 30 seconds in front of the aforementioned Will Neily "The Pansy Grower". I had no idea he was chasing me, must have been a huge disappointment for him to have to watch me in front of him for the entire half mile paddle. Poor Will. He may have reached 1000 pounds this year, but I'm sure visions of the back of my pumpkin will haunt him all year.
