Trekking race 21:00 [4] 2.0 mi (10:30 / mi)
AR Tune Up 2010 in Faribault, MN
Mike and the MNOC Crew always do a fabulous job with this first-race-of-the-season event. Tons of new teams and players which is always fun to see along with the oldies but goodies.
Started the race with a short O section in beautiful River Bend Nature Center.
Paddle race 1:00:00 [3] 4.0 mi (15:00 / mi)
After a slow TA, we were about 3 min behind the leaders - 24Seven - who were moving efficiently down the river that had lots of hard-to-read sections of shallows and hidden rocks.
Biking race 30:00 [4] 7.0 mi (4:17 / mi)
8 min boat TA and on the bike into a strong head wind.
Total guess on the time and distance.
Trekking race 15:00 [3] 1.0 mi (15:00 / mi)
Short O section off a compass bearing. Erl found the flag when he went behind a huge erratic to piss.
Biking race 20:00 [4] 3.4 mi (5:53 / mi)
Again, no idea on the time or distance. But had another bike leg from the short O to beautiful Nerstrand Woods - woods like butter.
Trekking race 1:00:00 [4] 4.0 mi (15:00 / mi)
Fast, fun Score O in Nerstrand. Did I mention that the woods are like butter?
Biking race 1:00:00 [4] 15.0 mi (4:00 / mi)
The bike back to River Bend was FAST with a strong tail wind most of the way. In our line, we were rocking at 24 mph for most of the ride. Nice!
