This chart[table]is for the 2000 RAAM Route which should remain close to
the same for the 2001 RAAM. Be advised though that this assumes the
official 2,975 mile distance, and if you get lost[tacking on extra miles
like I did in 2000]you may actually need an average speed a tenth or two
of a mile per hour higher higher to get your target official finishing time.
Going from average speeds of 10 - 25 MPH, It can be used for all RAAM categories
or divisions. I was orginally going to make it in tenth of a mile average
speed increments, but had to use quarter mile so that it would all fit nicely
onto one page.
