Best Dam Ride

Participated in this 50 mile mtn bike ride to raise money for burn patients! Rode the Bartham trail out to Keg Creek - made a loop and headed home. Bit sore afterwards - but overall really enjoyed it!

MedWar - Fort Gordon

I got to help out confirming the course (orienteering and mtn bike sections) plus proctoring scenarios and teaching volunteers how to proctor scenarios.

Master's Tournament - Augusta Nationals

As part of my job here I got to serve as medical staff for the 2013 Master's Tournament. The course was absolutely beautiful. I really enjoyed getting to see a part of sports history.

I was also able to help out several folks with issues ranging from blisters, to being struck by a golf balls, to having chest pains.

30th B-day - House hunting

I had about a week off surround my 30th birthday. Adam and I went up to Roanoke and I found a house and made an offer :)

We did a lot of riding on this trip including Francis Beatty in Charlotte, Carvin's Cove in Roanoke, Moore's Spring in Danbury with Dave and Warrior Creek in North Wilkesboro with Dave.

On the way home my car broke down and was towed all the way back to Charlotte!

We hung out with Adam's family in Clemson on our way back to Augusta!

Racing the Planet - Atacama Crossing

Will add all the info about serving as med support for the race!!

Day 6 - Santiago to Calama to San Pedro

We caught a morning flight from Santiago to Calama. Ironically we had dunkin donut and coffee for breakfast at the airport. The Santiago airport has shuttles you catch from the gate to the the airplane which is parked out on the Tarmac. The flight was also uneventful. The Calama airport was pretty small. We caught a shuttle bus to San Pedro. The drive was sort of like Utah through several canyons and the valley of the moon. We also saw areas that looked like they were covered with snow but were actually covered with salt.

In San Pedro we stayed at the casa de don Tomas which was a hotel. Despite the very hot weather there was no a/c. Mike and I explored town a bit and had a pizza and lomo al pobre,which was steak on fries with a fried egg on top.

The town was pretty touristy. They offered lots of tours including sand boarding, biking, hiking, star gazing...
