Wilderness Traverse with Salomon. What a pleasure to race with JYD, goose and phatty. I especially appreciate that they don't judge my terrible potty mouth both on and off the race course.

If it was easy everyone would do it. Ain't that the truth and no wonder adventure racing is such an arcane sport.

Beautiful paddle in the sunshine and so lucky to be in the boat with goose. He kindly reminded me to "sit tall and open my diaphragm." And never once did he threaten to throw me out of the boat and leave me with the giant sturgeons!

Zippy bike to trek on some fast and punchy trails. Definitely my highlight of the race.

Trek was stunning and I love love loved the coasteering section. I could hope along Gbay for days without ever getting bored of the beautiful rock and jack pines.

So pumped for the Warriors. How can you not be happy to see a bunch of twenty somethings winning Bob the Beaver in their second attempt?! Nice.

Thanks to my fantastic teammates for a night in the woods. Thanks to all the volunteers for making the event happen. Once again, Bobby nails it.
