09/28/2011 - BERRYMAN ADVENTURE - POST RACE UPDATE

First of all, a HUGE congratulations to all of the racers at the Berryman Adventure on a job well done!! It was a grueling course, probably one of the hardest Berryman Adventure races ever, so you should give yourselves a huge pat on the back on giving it your best! We hope you all felt like you were on a real adventure, and we also hope you had an excellent time at the race with good friends!

Results and split times are posted on the website. Congratulations to Kuat Racks and Terra Fusion on their first place finishes in the 12-Hour race, and to team WEDALI on taking home 1st place in the 36-Hour course! You guys earned it!! Also, a huge congrats to all of the first place teams in each division.

We would like to thank all of our sponsors for supporting this great race and the sport of adventure racing. A big, huge thank you to Kuat Racks for becoming the Presenting Sponsor of the Berryman Adventure! Also, a huge thank you to the following companies on supporting the Berryman Adventure, and adventure racing in general! Without their support, we wouldn't have all of the great prizes and throw outs during the race:

Kuat Racks
Alpine Shop
Columbia Sportswear
nuun
My Sweet Life
Yurbuds
Light & Motion
The North Face
MyTopo.com
Zanfel

When it is time for your next outdoor gear or apparel purchase, please remember that these companies support Bonk Hard Racing and adventure racing in general!

A HUGE, HUGE thank you goes out to all of our fabulous volunteers that helped us at the race this weekend, including Mike Cooper and John Machalek for running and updating the Checkpoint Tracker application. The race would not have been possible without all of your help, and speaking on the behalf of Bonk Hard Racing and all of the Berryman racers, "Thank You"!

Congratulations again to ALL OF YOU!! We hope you had a good time, and we hope to see you all at some upcoming events. Don't forget that the next event that Bonk Hard Racing is producing is the Checkpoint Tracker Championships race at the Land Between the Lakes in Kentucky on October 21st! After that is the very fun Castlewood 8-Hour race! We hope to see you all again soon!!
