Now the start is a mere three sleeps away.
This is, let me reiterate, a 1200-mile human-powered adventure race that pits my sweet spouse and his friend Jahn Tihansky against the weather, waves, wind, winding waterways, and whatever other w-flavored challenges to be managed as they travel a literal round the state.
During the race, the WaterTribe website has a live tracking map, which shows all the teams as they go. "All the teams" in the case of The Ultimate Florida Challenge being just three. Meanwhile, the 100 or so of the usual Everglades Challenge racers will be tracked separately. I mention this in an attempt to forestall the natural confusion when a spectator tries to find our heroes -–– and they seem alarmingly invisible.
