Adventure Race
What a crazy thing to do...but it was so much fun!
It was a six hour adventure race that included running, mt. biking, and kayaking. The best way I can explain what an adventure race is…it’s like a scavenger hunt with a topographic map. Shawn is by far the Navigator of the bunch…but I’m learning a lot! We started down town Reno then biked and ran all over Peavine mountain…my favorite part is when Shawn said, “it will be quicker to carry our bikes on our back up up up and over these hills”…I wish we had a picture of that…unfortunately there are no pictures of that part of the race.
Lucas is the best because he stood around and watched the whole thing!
Lucas screen printed our Team Jersey’s “Bio-Fuel Kills Orangutans.” What a cute little baby!
Race Meeting...Rules
Shawn figuring out the map…I’m helping so much.
Preping for the start
Running up river to the Kayaks
Kayaking...yeah...or is it a big yellow duck
Out of river to the bikes
Transition...yes we have nice Butts!
Me starting on the bike
Finish....5:36 minutes later...boy was I tired...But I still think a Marathon is the worst thing I have done!

Point Reyes
Yeah backpacking in Point Reyes is beautiful, relaxing, and Fun!
Lucas, Shawn, and I camped on the coast (CA) for two days...good times!
Sun Set from camp
The troop all packed up ready to go
I was just a little bit cold...any type of layer helped
Nap Time on the beach
Lucas-what a pain in the bottom
My Buddy
