AROC - Avoca 15/12/07

The first race for me of the 07-08 Adventure Race Season.... and it was a good start, Team "Deceptively Slow" completed the course in 3hr50mins. Woo Hoo, we finally broke the 4hr barrier and just managed to miss the extra leg by 3~4mins. We're awaiting official results.



(unfortunately the GPS tracker died just as we were heading into the kayak leg and missed the final rock shelf run along the coast ... magic)

Offical Results


Overall place: 45 / 141
All Male Cat: 28
Team : 71 Deceptively Slow

The final Urban Polaris

It ended up being a hot day (and sunburn to prove it) on the road Sunday, for the very last Urban Polaris event in Canberra, especially after the wet day before.

Not only was I doing it solo, but I decided to also take out the single speed. Except for Mt Taylor, the ride was good and while I probably didn't get as many controls as I could I was really happy with my ride (93kms). There were certainly times that I wanted to stop, but managed to pull through it, especially the last climb back to Stromlo.
