None yet.
- Introduction
- I am moving to the area and want to get involved in the AR sport
- Have you ever reached a point in an adventure (race or not) where getting dirtier/wetter didn't matter any more? Did that feel like despair or freedom?
-
Yes. Euphoric, a wave of smug satisfaction floads me and often times I start to laugh or smile.
- Have you ever mountain biked on a trail at night?
-
No, I am new to MTBing, previous experience has been road bike.
- Have you learned how to use a compass and map to navigate?
-
I competed in college in orienteering. I have used MGRS map and compass since then, but not orienting scale maps.
- Have you participated in an adventure race before? What is interesting to you about AR?
-
I have done Ultras before but not an AR. I am registered for my initial one in July in SC.
- What's your strongest AR discipline - biking, paddling, trekking, ropes, navigation? Your weakest?
-
Strengths: Trekking and navigation
Weakness: Biking
