BEST DAY EVER

First of all, just a little 6 hour race around Phoenix.  Kinda angry at the people of Old Scottsdale who felt the need to sleep til noon.  Due to the fact that zero stores were open we had to loop back there after Camelback mountain.  Here's how we felt after scaling some 90 degree rockface, tripping over cacti, and being passed by some crazy locals...

Oh yes.  Feeling like champs.  Keep in mind this is at the top - ie we still had to climb back down.  A more accurate description may be that we fell back down.  Following that our legs pretty much fell off (keep in mind we cliff dove yesterday).  We jogged in to the finish (with our alliance for the day - Team Forest Green - we owe them big) where upon we had to eat our scorpion sucker.  Yes.  There was a scorpion in a sucker.  And we ate it.  Like champs round 2.  Just fyi, turns out scorpions have no taste.  

A full day?  Oh no.  It's only 2pm at this point.  What could top that mountain top experience?

This: 

What is this?  Oh, just Jen and I speeding in Corvettes.  Around a speed race track.  Spinning out on all the turns.  It happened.  

Team Eco Green drove with confidence.  And we should.

Race standings based on speed?  Eco Green in 3rd place.  We were literally a dark horse.

And, highlight of the day, Jen's award.

Cone killer.  Yep.  She took those corners like a pro.

Full day?  Well, almost.  Just had to hit up the hot tub and pool at our current location.  Oh yeah, and hear the standings.  What are the standings?

We're tied for first.  So much for being the dark horses. Money.  

A day of literal and figurative highs and lows.
