W*A*R



One of the many reasons for my visit to the Yukon was for the Whitehorse Adventure Run. The races usually have slightly easier than normal nav, but around 25km, so it ends up being in the 3h range. My good friend, Chris Piller and I teamed up for the race, and we pulled off a narrow victory over the local Junior National team boys, Colin and Lee.

In the evening, Brent was at the meat station on the grill when the local paper called. "I happen to have the winners right here" might have been a bit unusual in some places...but I have the feeling our reporter didn't find it so surprising. Ah Whitehorse.

Brent's writeup of the race is an exciting account of the day.
Here's the article in the local paper.
