Thank you Pierre for this accurate assessment of what TRANSPIRED during the race ... I'm glad none of us EXPIRED; to be honest, there were two times I had to pray quite earnestly: the first time was on the second paddling leg that we wouldn't fall over again, and the second time was when we realised that Werner and Hilda were really missing I we all kney they must have been swimming.
Mandy relayed the harsh reality of the air temp next to the water just after our team mates were found: -8 degrees Celcius. Google tells me that is only 17.6 degrees Fahrenheit, so it couldn't have been very cold then, I guess that's why we didn't die from lack of exposure or something like that. Thank you Team Have Beer for your unwavering sense of humour; Hilda with the wrist injury from the previous week and this being her first AR ever, and Werner for entertaining us with his single speed 29'er. Donald PS: One day, I promise, I'll learn to navigate.
