  1. Multisport.fi was a favorite going in to the race, I'm so bummed for those Finns, and so early on too! I had them picked 5th, btw.
  2. More on Multisport.fi dropping out of the ARWC from http://teammultisport.blogs... (in Finnish) : bike wreck, dislocated shoulder/hand
  3. SleepMonsters has a new story posted on the AR World Championships at http://bit.ly/47SEQd
  4. Wow, is that right @arwc2009claudio ? Multisport.fi is out of the World Championships due to injury? (He notes nothing serious, but still!)
  5. Race website is down, http://www.ARWC2009.com, and so there's a giant void of information coming out of Portugal. Driving anyone else crazy?
  6. AR World Champs news re 'Berlin Bike' from USA: "Had a horrible 1st day due to some planning errors and rules confusion." Doing better today
  7. Hooray! I'm told Team ATP/Salomon (rugged North Americans!) went through Transition 5 near the race leaders and are "moving well."
  8. More ARWC news: a Finnish team (#53 maybe?) had their gear stolen from a car last night, but they're not dropping out and continuing somehow
  9. The OrionHealth team (defending champs) came in just a few minutes after Nike. Sounds like these two are fighting it out for early lead.
  10. OK, some AR World Championship updates from our inside guy on the course: Nike is 1st team in to Transition-5 with all checkpoints so far
  11. @JaymeFrank I guess teams skipped all the activities at the start since it wasn't rewarding enough; will be interesting to see it play out
  12. @O9Man @JaymeFrank -- I *think* Nike is leading the AR World Championships but the race website is like a Mondrian nightmare
  13. Rumour has it many teams (like 20 or so?) opted to skip the prologue at the AR World Championship & rest for the real race start tomorrow AM
  14. AR World Championship fantasy picks are locked in at http://www.UntamedAdventure... . . . best of luck everyone -- but I hope I win!
  15. I can feel the chaos of organizing the AR World Championship - stressed and motivated teams angling for any advantage. Nice just to observe.
  16. . . . immediately tore it apart, logistical detail by logistical detail, typo or translation error by typo or translation error.
  17. "The race was presented with great explanation of every decision and detail." Then the field of participants . . .
  18. Our man on the scene at the AR World Championships report that the race brief went like this . . .
  19. Each team is issued 59 diff maps for the AR World Championships ( http://bit.ly/4gabTY ) I thought we used a lot with 13 in New England
  20. This is the last day for making your Adventure Racing World Championship fantasy picks http://www.UntamedAdventure... go for it!
