Getting there is half the fun

Ecochallenge UBC Trial #2

Today team Frank n' Beans braved the elements and thick fog completing a successful second attempt at circumnavigating UBC via Wreck Beach. At the start, Frank went out hard while beans trailed behind but they soon regrouped and formed their tried and tested 'Cincinnati bowtie' formation, destroying the competition of a few half naked bums. Today's toughest course yet started at Fairview and headed North through the forest to Jericho Beach, the first checkpoint. From here the course skirted Wreck Beach along slippery rocks and logs, past the bunkers to "the sticks". The homestretch went up trail 7 to the Botanical Gardens and finally returning the tired racers to Fairview. Frank n' Beans was the first (and only) team through all checkpoints today, blowing the non-existent competition out of the stinky sea water.

Stay tuned for Eco Challenge UBC part 3 in the coming weeks: the complete curcumnavigation of the UBC peninsula!
