Missouri American Water MR340 « RiverMiles

This race is going on right now.(started Tue I guess..) Any of you ever do this? When I first found out about it - I thought for sure I'd want to, but there's no way. It's an endurance race and I don't think I'm that interested, but impressed that people can do this. 340 miles in 88 hours (anything over and you're DQ'd) from KC MO - to St. Charles, MO.

They time it each year to coincide with a full moon, so they can continue at night more safely. Don't think I want to be on the Missouri river at night in a kayak.

I might volunteer some time to be one of the power boat 'support' teams or something just to watch the race and help out though.

Pretty cool - but not for me thanks!
