Paddle - canoe race 50:00 [5] 3.0 mi (16:40 / mi)
USARA National Championship - Potosi, MO
Stupid human tricks to seperate the 77 teams. One teammate (Dawn) ran to get the control card while Joe and I paddled down to the end of the lake to pick her up. 2 controls and then to the ta.
Orienteering race 1:30:00 [4] 4.0 mi (22:30 / mi)
O section to further seperate teams. This section was straight forward with Joe and Dave on nav.
Mtn Bike race 3:30:00 [4] 25.0 mi (8:24 / mi) +3281ft 7:28 / mi
Mountain bike section featuring some great single track on the Ozark and Berryman trails.
Trail run race 3:00:00 [4] 12.0 mi (15:00 / mi) +1640ft 13:17 / mi
Trail run to canoe put in. A few controls along the way but very straight forward navigation.
Paddle - canoe race 3:30:00 [4] 11.0 mi (19:05 / mi)
Canoe drag and paddle section. The RD said "If you fall out of the boat don't worry just get up and dust yourself off...". That pretty much describes this 'paddle' section.
Trail run 4:30:00 [3] 12.0 mi (22:30 / mi) +1640ft 19:55 / mi
Trail run after the paddle was very cold and wet for the first hour until I warmed up. After that I tried to dry myself before the last bike section. Two hard points allowed us to close on the field.
