Adventure Race race (Kinetic Sprint AR) 1:40:00 [5] 25.0 km (4:00 / km)
So, my planned relaxed Sunday was turned upside-down at 4pm yesterday (Saturday) when Ryno called and asked me to race with Team First Ascent Cyanosis, due to Nic being sick. Last minute call up off then bench to race with Landie and Ryno. GULP!
The race was great, fast flowing and some lekker singletrack on the MTB. Team Asics pulled a lead off the first run, but we reeled them in and put the hammer down on the bikes. Managed to start the last run/kayak section with a few minutes lead. Kept it up well and kept the kayak going in a straight line which helped!
Felt stuffed trying to pull myself over the obstacles at the finish! Awesome race and great mates to race with! Finished 1st overall, leading home a field of about 70 teams. Feel good after a nice middag slaapie...
