Moab Adventure Extreme race TAKE 2!

Introducing...the Dik-Diks!
Jared & brother in law, Brant...we are the Dik-Diks (google it and you'll find out what it is;)
The Adventure Extreme race in Moab is a bike, run, kayak, & rappel race. The course extended over about 50 miles of Moab's beautiful terrain. It's a challenge and works the muscles, but it is absolutley FUN!
Brant and I performed together in this race one year ago, and we were determined to do it again. We trained for 4 months and it paid off. We didn't get into the top 3, but we did manage to take 6th place out of 27 teams. We completed the race in 6 hrs and 45 minutes.

Aaron, Jared's older brother, was also in the race. He was a part of a 4 man coed team. Brant and I were determined to beat his team and we were able to complete that goal...we beat them by 15 minutes!

Next year our goal is to go be apart of the Adventure Extreme series in Colorado...stayed tuned!
