Lenny Goodell and Tim Wilcox raced in the 3Oth Mt Taylor Quadrathlon on Feb 16th. The Quad consists of a 13 mile road bike race, 5 mile run, 2 mile ski, 1 mile snowshoe up to the top of Mt Taylor at 11,300 ft and then turn around and do it in reverse back down to grants for a total of 43 miles and 5600 ft of climbing.
This was Tim first time for the Quad and he kicked it with a time of 4:58:10 taking 14th place of 39 in the 30-39 age group.
This was Lenny's first Quad, first multi-sport race and his first running race and he was on his single speed road bike. Lenny's left knee starting hurting soon after starting the uphill run causing him to walk most of it and all the down hill run (10 miles total!!). His goal was sub 6hr, but that was with the expectation of running all the uphill and most of the down hill. Lenny ended up with a time of 6:21:38 for 26th out of 43 in the 40-49 age group.
