Getting ready for 2013!
Well, the 5th annual Calleva Adventure is another one for the books.
Thanks to all of the adventure racers, volunteers and sponsors who helped make it such a great success. It took us the whole year to prepare this year's race and we think it was our best course design so far. The race started 20 miles in a straight line from the finish, but most teams traveled more than 40 miles to get to the final destination. Every year we try to include new and challenging twists into the race and this year we were excited about the mountain bike time trial and paddling with bikes in the canoes. (There are rumors already about next year's Calleva Race...something about standing paddle boards...)
Regardless of your standing in the results or whether or not you were able to cross the finish line, you should be incredibly proud of yourselves for tackling the challenging course in such hot and humid conditions (not to mention the thunderstorm!).
Vlad and Oleg have once again outdone themselves on action shots from the race. All photographs from the race are available for viewing and purchasing at Vladimir Bukalo photography. There are more links to photos in the right column. Please send along links to your own photos and race reports as it is great to get an inside glimpse from the racers' perspective as we plan for next year! (Send all complaints about the race to your local congressman.) We will start working on the race video soon and will send it out with the Markoff Haunted Forest update, so stay tuned. (Don't forget that many of you now have free tickets to the Haunted Forest so we hope to see you out there!)
Race results may also be viewed via EXPERT, SPORT. Congratulations again to the winners and finishers! Teams A-List/Too many kids and Zanakana, in addition to their prizes, have a free entry to the 2013 Calleva adventure race for winning the prime division in Expert and Sport categories. Congratulations guys!
Good luck with the rest of your race season and we look forward to seeing you next year!
