Kyle's Adventure Race

Kyle & Kris competed in an adventure race in Jefferson City and we had a great time cheering them on. They received what exactly they were to do right before the race.
The race started with a 3 mile run and Kris pulled a muscle in his calf right away and partners had to stay within 100 feet of each other so they were off to a rough start.

They were then off on a 25 mile road race and they were able to pull themselves up in the pack and had to stop and play tennis during this which they found out this wasn't there sport.






Just when they thought they were getting ahead Kyle got a flat tire and the pit crew wasn't exceptionally fast. My camera battery ran out so this is the end of the pics but they race continued with a canoe adventure in the rain with a 2 mile run after that and back on the bikes for a 4 mile trek through the woods which was pretty treacherous with the rain and the other bikers wearing the trail down. They finished with a frisbee golf and Kyle carrying Kris on his back across the finish line. Kyle said he was ready for his next race and learned alot.
