Urban Adventure. Really.

Ben and I competed in an Urban Adventure race today. It was fabulous. I took it on kind of as a mental/physical challenge, was pretty nervous about it, but it was such a good time. About 180 teams racing in downtown South Bend, Notre Dame, and surrounding areas. All in all, we probably rode our bikes about 15 miles, ran/jogged/walked another 2 or 3. Highlights include rafting the rapids, rock wall climbing, the zip line over the river, and other random tasks (some puzzles, had to buy some produce at the farmers market, find an alligator at the zoo, find the Lou Holtz statue at Notre Dame stadium, among other things). 24 checkpoints in total. Check out the video.

Now, exhausted. Time to sleep.
