DD and I spent the day helping at the 1st Annual Capital City Adventure Race (CCAR) www.capcityadventure.com .She assisted at central control. I was event physician and general assistant “step-n-fetchit”. Fortunately my physician skills weren’t needed (God, I love working with pros).

It was a “short” event: approx. 25 road miles of biking, 4.5 miles of single track technical biking, .75 miles of canoeing, approx. 3 miles of running (including a short orienteering course). We had 47 teams of 2. The first team was over the finish line in approx. 3 hours. It was 55 degrees C, intermittent drizzle, IFR weather (low clouds, < 2 mile visibility).

The money raised will go to build addt’l. biking trails in the park system.
