Twelve Points Adventure Race

I did the twelve points AR - a production of Inverted Armadillo Rogue Racing. Pretty cool race - 12 hour rogaine format with 3 4 hour long legs that could be done in any order. The race was at Sunnyhill restoration area near Umatilla on the Oklawaha River - great area I raced with Erik Wise and Elizabeth Morse (we raced great together). The trek was true to word - we finished right at 4 hours - just as the heat index was topping 100 degrees. Highlight was spotting a black bear along the course and some tough bushwacking. We did the paddle second - also a full 4 hour paddle, with one CP that required a pretty tough bushwack through slime (on the video). The bike leg was brutal and we only got 2 of the 4 points before heading in. Still a great race and some awesome training for our team. Highlights are in the video;
