A couple of weeks ago with our Winter Adventure race. Sheri and I planned to do the 4 hour course but was sick on race day. I contemplated racing on my own, but then I asked my son if he wanted to join me. We dropped down to the 2 hour race for his first ...
2 hours of running through a local State Park finding checkpoints! We felt good. It was a beautiful day with full sunshine. Have to love that in the Nebraska winter! We felt strong on navigation and didn’t have any trouble finding most of the checkpoints. We slowed down immensely when we got the part ...

I really want to write about our adventure race, but first I must tell you how awesome Sheri is! On Saturday she ran up 40 flights of stairs for Omaha’s Trek the Towers event! Then we did a mini triathlon at a local health club that afternoon! She kicked my butt by the way. ...

In September we did a little family adventure race. All 4 us participated. It was out at a local lake. It was a beautiful day. We had a map with clues and checkpoints plotted. We let the kids lead the way and decide which direction to go with little help from us. My daughter said ...
We did it. We participated in a 10 hour adventure race. It was pretty good for 8. The last 2 were brutal. It was very hot and humid that day. Like over 100 degrees hot. We were on our way by 5:15 and made it to the starting lake at 6:00 for check in. ...
Last Saturday we completed another Adventure Race. As we got into the car to leave we said…how is it so much fun to run through poison ivy, get scratched up from weeds and tree branches, run, bike, swim for 3 hours? We had another great time. It’s like being a kid on a scavenger ...
