| The start of the Canadian Death Race. See the guy in blue? He was the first male soloist across the line in 12:45. He broke a new record. Amazing! The first female soloist came in at 13:30 or so. She also broke a new record. |
 |
| Amber Hunter at the start of the race. Doesn’t she look cute? I was wondering how long that smile would remain on her face. I saw her again at the leg 3/4 exchange and she was still smiling (sorta). |
 |
| And here’s Mike Serediak of Grande Prairie smiling his way through the first bit of leg 1. This was Mike’s first Death Race. |
 |
| That’s Jen and Delaine’s friend Kevin, also from Grande Prairie. I don’t know him, however, when you live in a small town, everybody knows everybody in a roundabout way. I bumped into him on leg 2. He has a black bib, indicating he’s a soloist. There were more than 400 soloists entered into the race this year. Only 149 finished. That just shows how challenging this course is. |
 |
| Of course, there were a few races who went the theme. Not sure how long the paint remained on his face. Leg 1 was the shortest and of the 5-part relay. The average runner finished around two hours. |
