Trinidad Coast to Coast
« on: October 20, 2008, 06:43:56 AM »
not sure if anyone followed this race this weekend. But it really was amazing. Me and couple friends were the support / drinking crew for team run runners. Next year we are all hoping to take part as a team. These people are amazing to come from toco lighthouse to kayak centre all on human power, riding, hiking, and kayaking.
The winner is a total beast from new zealand..Did all the stages in a time of 10 hrs 34 mins..to put that in perspective our friends did the second day in a total of 11hrs.

tell me more about the race and the stages
Whatever you do, do it to the purpose; do it thoroughly, not superficially. Go to the bottom of things. Any thing half done, or half known, is in my mind, neither done nor known at all. Nay, worse, for it often misleads.
