Adventure Racing World Championships


As of the 17th stage, Buff Thermocool is in first place in the Adventure Racing World Championship in Spain. They have about a four and half hour lead over Blackwater.

Rumor has it that Mike Kloser, Blackwater’s captain and arguably the best adventure racer of all time, will retire after this event.

The five remaining stages include two trekking, one paddling, one mountain bike, one climbing, and an inline skating stage.

This is the first I’ve heard of an inline skating stage in an adventure race. I hope the other teams have plenty of practice skitchin’ so they can make this race interesting.
