Adventure Race race 25:00 [5] 0.6 km (41:40 / km)
shoes: Duluth Jack Pine
Brutal portage down 300 M 200 foot drop, then back up after the boat part of the race. Only way I got my boat up was walking backwards pulling with both hands. Going down much easier than going up.
Adventure Race race 4:35:00 [4] 17.4 km (15:48 / km)
shoes: Duluth Jack Pine
Adventure race at Carter Caves. 3.8KM paddle, 6.2KM bike and 7.4 KM on foot. Miscalculated in my planning so with one hour to go all the remaining controls were outside my 1 hr range. I finished at about 5 hrs.
I should have gotten controls 8 + 9 + 10 during the paddle. I would have needed to dropped the kayak and changed foot gear and then bushwacked to them. I was not really prepared for that. Need to think more clearly next time.
The race was organized as whatever mode you want use it, except no swimming. Since the lake controls were out in the lake you needed to use the boat for them. Overall had a great time! As in AR tradition, some controls at great vistas, Shangri Li Arch, Raven Bridge, Fern Bridge, near Smokey Hollow Bridge. First on the lake, interesting view from it. Only negatives 90+ hot & humid and the uphill portage.
