Why yes, we're from Texas... how'd ya guess?


Steve and Kathy preparing for the rope skills testing


At the medical check station


Gear check... yep, our tent works


An actual, undoctored screenshot... if only we could have kept the "lead" once the race started!


The race start is near, and everyone is excited


Steve and Kip paddle out, to wait for Jason and Kathy to swim over from the start line


Kathy swims out strong


Made it!


Kathy and Jason climbing into the boat


And we're off!


At least we finished without our kayak sinking


It's always hard to get those legs moving after a long paddle


Quick transition!


Midway through our kick-ass scooting leg


One of the more unbikeable sections


Purifying some stream water


Finishing the 130 mile bike, still in an amazing 16th place...
...before we fell to the back of the pack, and finally had to withdraw.
Can't win 'em all!
