Going north...

Tomorrow morning team Calleva is going north to New Hampshire (and probably Maine) for 3 days and 3 nights Untamed New England adventure race. We will have tracking beacons and you will be able to see our real time location on map. Leaderboard will be also available, as well as race updates and race photos. Don't forget to send us trail mails, may be it will help us to find right way to the next CP. We will have our camera with us on the course. Our team is Calleva, our number is 32.

Right now we are trying to set all our gear for the race, and time is short. Last week and this weekend was the busiest time of the year for us. We did the Third Annual Calleva Adventure Race! It was a blast! Here is after race email from the captain of the winning team Jim Weber (we like getting such email):

As usual, you and your team of Calleva volunteers put on a FANTASTIC race again this year! I’ve been training and racing in this area for 10+ years, but in each of the three years you have run this race, you have managed to take me to new terrain, parks and trails that I have never visited before. Riverboarding thru the rapids was the highlight of the day, and we really had a blast on that section. I’ve kayaked that part of the river a few times before, but I never imagined myself going down it on a boogie board. I am glad you arranged for a little cooler weather this year, and I came across the finish line looking and feeling a LOT better than I did last year (as evidenced by the picture you selected for the race T-shirts!).

I know that this event would not be possible without the support of Calleva and the army of volunteers who helped out…so on behalf of all the racers, I wanted to send out HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who was involved with organizing and running the race. Congratulations also to all of the adventure racers who were out there on the course…we hope to see you all again next year!

The members of Team A-List / Too Many Kids are already looking forward to next year’s Calleva Adventure Race.

Thanks again!
