First Grizzly man adventure race went well. We didn't get as many checkpoints as we would have liked but we had a lot of fun and learned a lot of things for next year. Took us 10.5-11 hrs to finish. We figured we covered over 30 miles. My new Saucany shoes are toast but they weren't designed for terrain like this either. The new packs were champs. They held everything required for the race and plenty of food and water to last us 11 hours with no problems. The inflatable pack was perfect and kept the load very stable. We really couldn't have asked for better weather we only got really too cold once. The water portion was nice and was actually a nice cool down.
The ladies 2:00 minutes before start of race.
Early morning near first checkpoint.



Creek crossing on Sunset Trail

Couldn't have asked for better weather.
Short break while we choose our next way point.
20 minutes from finish

Love the pressurized pack!


First Real run day with the new packs and we fought rain and wind up Water Works hill. The pressurized pack is really nice when you are suckin air.
