3 days, 4 races!!
8 October 2024And that's a wrap on a brutally tough, but good weekend. On the journey home, feeling somewhat broken.
15km summary (actually 17km):
The altitude broke my lungs, the mountains broke my legs, the obstacles broke my arms, but nothing broke my spirit. I held onto my 100% obstacle completion band for 16km...but Dropzone claimed it! Gave it a good effort, with multiple tries, but just didn't have enough left in me to get to the end of that one.
17km, 850m ascent (from a base of about 2500m above sea level)...once again, humbling!
To put the difficulty into perspective, Only 4 ladies in my age group completed the course with 100% obstacle completion.
Team races was fun. A few errors early in the race meant we were out of the competition, so we used the opportunity to have fun and practice some of the tricky obstacles while we finished.
Thank you to everyone who helped get me to the start line (actually 4 start lines). I cannot express my gratitude enough.
Next...home, recovery and reflection!!

Well done, Tarryn!
