Adventure Race race 6:00:44 [3] **
shoes: New Balance 907
Castlewood 8 Hour
What a great, fun, short course in our back yard. During the paddle it seemed like the easiest AR I've ever done. I couldn't believe it was almost over.
I feel responsible for our 20 minutes lost time going to Control 20. Bill and I made the exact same mistake last year looking for the tunnel under the railroad tracks from the track side.
Last year I said "Well, at least we'll never make that mistake again. Now we know where it is." I even made the same wrong statement about the nearby cliffs - "We can't be near it, see the cliffs on the opposite side?"
Everyone on the team was great. Emily was very game for her first adventure race. Gary is one heck of a paddler.
Our transitions at the paddle were very slow, but we're not a formal team so it's about what I'd expect. Practice and experience would help. I can't commit the time, so who am I to talk.
We were pretty balanced as a team. Emily probably had more go than the rest of us, which was pretty exciting.
