On Saturday April 25th, James completed his first adventure race of the 2009 season with his sister Kerri. They finished the 30 km course of running, biking and navigation in a stellar time of 3 hours and 8 minutes, which was well under their goal of three and a half hours. But even more impressive was the fact that they placed 14th out of 34 teams in their category (co-ed pairs), and 69th out of the total of 140 teams. This is an excellent start to their season, considering they both had been quite busy in the weeks leading up to the race, and had not trained nearly as much as they had planned :)
Kerri's boyfriend, Adam, and I were their personal paparazzi and cheering squad. We saw them off at the start line, met them at check point four to cheer them on, and greeted them at the finish line. In between we checked out the shops in Port Moody, and sat in the sunshine at a local cafe.
Here's some Pics:
God job guys!!
