Special Contributions to the MAD FIGS: In 2003, a large number of Fresno Ultimate players attended the
ultimate frisbee event at the Septathalon. While few returned the next year, T-Bird did show up again and
went on to do the rest of the day's events as well. Since then, he has become a frequent Septathalon attendee,
often travelling from out of town for the competition.

Pounder
Special Status: The only person to win a Septathalon who is not a member of the MAD FIGS
Special Contributions to the MAD FIGS: Being related to the Animal and Animalito, Pounder obviously posseses power far greater than most mortals. But he has
also been one of the most dedicated Septathalon competitors, attending more than half the events to date.

McMath
Special Status: A frequent competitor at many of the early Septathalons.

during high school, but later joined forces with the MAD FIGS by "chaperoning" some debate tournaments.

Jenny #3
AKA: Saktown
Special Status: 10-time champion of the Female Septathalon, 8-time champion of the Couples Division.
Special Contributions to the MAD FIGS: By 2003 there had already been two different Jennys (that hadn't been stricken from the
record) in attendance at previous Septathalons. Normal record-keeping protocol would have required the use of the last initial for clarity,
but since there was already another Jenny S. the nickname Jenny #3 was used instead. Although she has gone on to become one of the most
dedicated and successful Septathalon competitors, the tertiary title still remains.
Mini-Figs
Originally referring to younger siblings interested in running, there are now enough MAD FIGS offspring to (theoretically) make up a new acronym for the younger generation! While most are still too young to compete in cross country events, there is definite potential for greatness.
