Some might think driving 12 hours one way, competing for less than 2 minutes each, then driving 12 hours home is crazy.  But a little less crazy when you bring home some gold medals.  This weekend the team drove out to Milford, OH and competed in the season opener for the firefighter challenge.  Taking 3rd, 4th and 6th in the individuals and first place in the overall team made the drive worth it.

With only 3 team members able to go we got though a field of around 70 firefighters to start the season right.  It was great getting to meet and run against the guys from Windsor Canada and to see Ross Mosher again.  Some of team Metrx showed up to cheer us on, which was nice but they were missed out on the course.  Then the guys from Norfolk came out making a drive that was even an hour longer than ours.

Overall it was a good event and worth the drive.  John Woolery will be heading out to Marlborough Ma next in a few weeks then the team might head up to Rapid city.  Thanks for all the support from everyone..
