Adventure Race in Brookville, PA

A team of 6, consisting of 50% Oplingers, competed in an all day adventure race in Brookville, PA yesterday!  The race consisted of an 8.5 mile run, a 2 mile swim, a 28-mile bike, a 12-mile kayak, an 11-mile orienteering course, and a 9.5 mile run.  The race started at 7:01 a.m., and our team ended just after 6:20pm.  We came in 8th out of 18 teams.  Everyone worked hard, and there was great support!  Pictures and story soon!
