the pre-written letters "hurdles" and HURDLES might be a good name. Had each player write in letters for the following player, keeping 4 hurdles ahead, but this didn't allow the players to plan ahead. It would be better to write in letters for the player who just played. (Kept record of whose turn it was to continue next time we get together.)
