We DID race into the dark!

Bravo to all race participants and race volunteers! AACVI has successfully completed.

The heat took many of us by surprised as we were all expecting showers in the afternoon. Nevertheless, no rain means race will proceed as planned. As the race theme suggests Sunset Adventure, teams literally race from day till night!


The fastest teams took about 5hrs while some teams were being cut-off at earlier Check Points. All teams return to the end point in good spirit. Give us a little more time, we will post up the full results once we gathered the score sheets from all Check Points. Here's the results of the top 3 teams of each category.
