Adventure Race race (AROC Cattai) 3:30:00 [5] 34.0 km (6:11 / km) +469m 5:47 / km
shoes: new balance 790
PaddyPallin AROC Sprint Cattai National Park
Raced with Andy and Sebba
The first leg a paddle along a narrow winding river. We got a good start and sat on the tail of Ben, Mounty, and katrin, passing them not far before the end of the leg.
The 2nd leg was a rogaine. We got all of the controls with out any mistakes, but the others we already on the water.
The next leg was a short paddle, then a run collecting 4 controls back to the main TA. We ran well, passing the guys in the front.
We left on the bike about 10min in the clear. But andy got a puncher. We had a lot of trouble pumping up the spare wheel and watched as the others and Dave, glenn and steve rode past. Finally after about 10min we got going but made a nav mistake and andys wheel kept getting flatter. We stopped and pumped it up again, but andy had to finish the ride with a flat. However we passed daves team riding backwards as they has missed 2 controls.
We then had a run back to where the boats were left, but sebba was doing it tough and i made a nav mistake which let daves team back infront.
The last paddle hurt.
We finished in 3rd place. 16min behind ben's team.
Good race and a great area!
