Resolution Adventure Race

I was lucky enough to get to make it to the Pangea Resolution Adventure Race this weekend. Even though I did not have enough time to put together a team, when I got to the race I was given the camera and also was recruited to getting Elite CP8 into the correct location. Along the way I got to see the monkeys and also a giraffe (yes a giraffe).

Once I completed those task I was really in the mood to race - so after doing a few AR 101 courses I found a great team-mate, Rajesh. Rajesh is unique in that he is a triple amputee, and racing with 1 arm and 2 prosthetic limbs.



No matter - I was glad that we were lucky enough to be able to start with the paddle, and hammered through a beautiful paddle section. We decided to bike second and the nice muddy single track and the navigation made it a lot of fun. We were both about at the wall when we hopped off the bike and headed into the orienteering/trek. We pushed at 100% to move through this section and were happy to complete the race 6th overall, clearing the course ( we are Team Live Free at http://www.pangeaadventureracing.com/race_archive.php?r=38 ) - woo hoo! Raj was a great team-mate and pushed both me and himself hard, we will definitely race together again.

Anyway, Enjoy some video of the race.
