Peaks and Valleys 2009 - Sunday April 19

Here are the results from the 2009 Peaks and Valleys race on Sunday. We had two divisions doing the race, solo runners, and teams where one person did part of the race on a bike and the other did a portion running.

This year we added 3 extra, optional, checkpoints to ensure racers went a certain way. All racers visited the optional checkpoints when in the area and were awarded a 5 minute bonus per checkpoint, so the times below reflect the 15 minute bonus for those getting all checkpoints. This becomes important when comparing this years times to those from last year. We now have a new course record for the bike/run, by a mere 3 minutes.

Dave and Lynn’s 2008 time of 2:12 has been shaved to 2:09 by Veronica and Josh. Maybe some bragging rights will be on the line for next years race. Ann and Ian’s solo bike time remains the record as we had no contestants in that division this year, and the ViaSat 2008 run time of 5:13 is still the run time to beat.

Well done everyone, and we hope to see you again in 2010. This was the second Peaks and Valleys and we plan on putting it on again next year, perhaps in March as the April weather has been in the 90’s both years.

Competitors on the run course are ranked first by the number of checkpoints visited, then by their time.
