Buena Vista 12 Hr Adventure Race

Daniel and his two buddies, Keith and Jacque, competed in a 12 hr adventure race this last Saturday in Buena Vista, CO. The course was a combination of mountain biking, kayaking, running, orienteering (plotting points on a map and finding them with a compass), and a ropes course. It took them about 9 hours to complete (they ended up in about the middle of the pack of contestants) and they did an awesome job!  Christine (Keith’s wife) and I are so proud of them. Here’s a picture of them as they loaded up to take off for the race in Denver. 

There’s also some pictures of the guys in the race here: http://riipix.com/AXSBV_index.html.  Look for Daniel in a blue sleeved shirt in a single red kayak using a paddle with blue paddle ends.  He’s in the ropes pictur es also (near the end of the set).
