I’m 27 year old, female, Xterra triathlete looking to transition into adventure racing. I got my feet wet with an 18 hr race this past fall. I’m a solid trail runner & mountain biker. Looking for a partner/team to do some races in PA, WV and/or NY- 12-24 hrs. I live in Indiana, PA.

Mandatory gear is limited to:

Hands free illumination (headlamp etc.), compass, mapcase for the Night time Navigation Stage, and a mountain bike for the duathlon.

All other gear will be provided, though it is recommended that you wear warm comfortable clothing and running shoes.

Glad to hear that you toes haven't fell off yet:). I will be at Raccoon (if I'm alive and well) but as for now Max made a decision not to race any longer ("cause we are useless" - this is his argument:).

I did mentioned cross-country skiing last year! Frank said same thing as this time: too few people have the equipment. But I agree with you - skying would have been so much fun!!

We'd love to change the bike leg to X-country skiing, but are afraid that we would disappoint those racers that don't have skis. Maybe we will take a poll and see the results? Stay tuned!

I had a bit of frostbite too, but the race was fun overall (except the bike push). It would be the best race ever if they changed the cycling to cross country skiing. (or maybe an option of bike or skis depending on preference or weather)

Elena and Max! Great report. For anyone who reads this, they are NOT exaggerating about the racing conditions (my frostbite is healing nicely). I hope you only move to Toronto so we see you again next January! And I hope to see you at Raccoon too. I will bring the vodka :)

Stacey Gelhaus rocks. What an accomplishment as a group but phenomenal show of character as a soloist.
