Reasons why we rocked TURFF:
1. We had some previous knowledge of downtown Pittsburgh from last year
2. We used our strong biking skills and got all the points except for 2 bonus ones
3. Initially we were going to avoid kayaking, but with Franks’ encouragement and Kristen’s adventurous spirit, we hopped in a tandem kayak, got some points, and exited the kayak with smiles
4. Our great friend Lesley volunteered at the start/finish, bonded with Frank and Bethann, and cheered us on to victory
5. Kristen's sharp eye quickly picked up on clues that we almost passed and missing them would have added a lot of time to our bike leg
6. For the first time in an adventure race, we didn’t have that sickening, lost and disoriented feeling. It was replaced with confidence and the luxury to focus more on speed then navigation
7. We placed SECOND in the all female division and 21st overall out of 50 teams – how great is that!??!?!
We’re already looking forward to TURFF 2010!!! Hopefully pictures to be posted shortly!
