The G-Rant : Grant's Rants on Adventure Racing

“Without adventure, civilization is in full decay.” - Alfred North Whitehead

A Quick 5 Minutes . . .

I've been quiet lately, too busy on too many projects to take a few minutes to post here.  Let's see what I can do in 5 minutes . . .

Jill is back from Zurich and we think we have an apartment to move into in a month or two; she says Zurich has lots of hills and woods, and the Alps are very pretty, and that I'm going to like it there.  Was there ever any doubt?  By the way, can anybody out there help us translate a German lease agreement?

Here's a link to some interesting O-thinking on how to improve your orienteering.  He mentions counting the controls you get in 6 months or a year . . . I can share that those doing the full Untamed Virginia course will be able to add no less than 25 orienteering flags to their count, and those are true orienteering style points, not the manned stuff.  Bring your compasses and headlamps!

The shirts for the race, by the way, are going to be technical wicking shirts from Axis Gear.  Really cool.  Here is an early proof that we based the final shirt design on . . . this is close but I'll keep the final design a secret until race day:
