Should we add Garstan to the knife-throwing? It reads in his bio by Celuien: "handy with a knife"

In anticipation of the three-legged race...

Stigend and Garstan could be quite a fine pair as they are close friends and are used to work together. On the downside G is 35 and S is 30 so they are not so agile in an unfamiliar situation as some younger ones might be - even if they'd realise how to do it mentally.

Cnebba and Garmund will be an interesting pair. They are agile and if they get it right they might be the ones to beat! But there should be something like a roll for their succeeding to co-operate. I'm not talking so much a mental thing as that I think they could do at the moment of competition but a physical one - like if they get the rhythm and understand it, that they are able to pull it off together.

Also the fact of fathers running against their sons might open nice possibilities: like daddies letting the kids win them at the last meters if there was such a situation; the kids trying to take advantage of their fathers' possible fumble - or even helping that to be; a mishap between the two pairs that might bring forwards nice interactions between them (that's probably not so good idea as in the end it would probably be me writing all that stuff between the characters with no interaction with any other writer)... Just ideas.
