2013 Yukon River Quest Results

Thanks to all my supporters and donars, the Outward Bound Canada team finished the 715 km race from Whitehorse to Dawson City in 50 hours, 20 min. We came in 12th place overall, 5th in the voyageur category and 3rd in the mixed voyageur. 

Some people say to win is to be in the running, but really the secret to winning this race is copious chocolate covered coffee beans, being on the water first, paddling through the lightening, catching the fast currents, taking the short cuts, drafting, callouses, bum cushions, leuko tape, amazing navigators, an amazing support team full of beans, an indefatigable spirit and something to combat narcolepsy, something real strong! Oh and did I say Advil, yes being fueled by Advil or sponsored is a must, preferably the liquid kind!
