adventure race race 7:44:31 [5]
Venture Quest AR with Brad Whitmore and Mike Ball. Lots of fun. 41st overall out of ~110 teams; 9th coed. (Jon Torrance raced solo and took 2nd overall.) Short road run, mtn. bike loop, couple mile trail run, long paddle, 2nd bike loop, short paddle, long trek. Wasn't sure I'd hold up for the whole thing and there were times near the end that I wanted to sit and rest but kept plugging. Brad towed me on the trails and through the woods the last two hours where we moved up 20 places by taking short cuts through the woods. Picked up a couple tag-alongs when we left the trail - they knew good orienteering when they saw it! The challenges were fun - Mike got to do a zip-line and I did a tyrolean traverse.
