not really sure what stance i've got going on but i'll be sure to improve my stance as well. |
New home for our adventures, Courtney and I are doing the 2018 MR340 and this will be our online journal of sorts. when lewis and clark got to kansas city and setup camp at what is now kaw point, collins and hall got into the whiskey that night and had a good ol' time. why wouldn't they be our teams namesake for an attempt (and now success) at the MR340.

Here we are, preparing ourselves for an attempt at the Missouri river 340, the race from Kansas City to St. Louis on the Missouri river, all 340 miles of it. It's been all fun and games talking about it till we got the checkpoint and cutoff times:
Kaw Point, mile 367, Race Begins, 8am Tuesday, July 31st.
Lexington, mile 317, (50 miles) 5pm Tuesday Leg avg. 5.56mph Total avg. 5.56
Waverly, mile 294, (23 miles) 9pm Tuesday Leg avg. 5.75mph Total avg. 5.62
Miami, mile 262, (32 miles) 11am Wed. Leg avg. 2.29mph Total avg. 3.89
Glasgow, mile 226, (36 miles) 6pm Wed. Leg avg. 5.14mph Total avg. 4.15
Katfish Katy's, mile 180, (46 miles) noon Thurs. 2.56mph Total avg. 3.60
Jeff City, mile 144, (36 miles) 7pm Thurs. 5.14mph Total avg. 3.78
Hermann, mile 98, (46 miles) 10am Friday 3.07mph Total avg. 3.64
Klondike, mile 56 (42 miles) 6pm Friday 5.25 mph Total avg. 3.79
St. Charles, mile 29, finish line, (27 miles) Midnight 4.50mph Total avg. 3.85 mph
So, i suppose this is also an attempt at documenting our process, preparing the boat, training and meetings and whatever else comes along. I retrieved our vessel last weekend, and will be giving it the once over in the coming days. Seats with some padding and back support of some sort, some structural repairs, make sure it's water tight, the basics.
Here is Henry checking the boat out, with some lunch on our way home:
