Tecnu Extreme/StaphAseptic adventure racing headed to Georgia this weekend to race at the NGAR(North Georgia Adventure race) in Fort Mt. State park. Battling 40-50 mile an hour winds, pouring rain the entire race, and cold temperatures, most teams are notorious for quitting this 87 mile race. This year was no different with 16 teams dropping out of the field of 35. Only four teams finished the entire course with local team Enduaventure winning over powerhouse NUUN by 50 minutes, and we blazed the last orienteering section bettering NUUNS time by 50 minutes and finished 3rd, 40 minutes back. A great showing against top teams from the east especially considering this was our first race together. Miserable, sloppy conditions, but that's why we signed up. A good start to our 2010 season. We have high hopes for this team. Stay tuned for more!
