Death Race 2010 Adventure, first impression
Every now and then it’s fun to test ourselves. A couple months ago I tried just that.
Back in June of 2009 I accompanied and supported a childhood best friend of mine, Captain Michael Signori, through something called Death Race. It was what you’d expect by the event title alone; something _____ awful. You can enter your own expletive. 🙂
Honestly it was fantastic and thrilling. Pure determination, coupled with physical prowess, and paired with magnificent timing and the sheer luck of adequate preparation. Basically you have to be a BAMF or 100% certifiably crazy to complete. And Mike did, in honorable time mind you: 14 total hours in summer 2009.
Michael is by far the fittest and craziest person – challenge wise – I’ve ever encountered and most likely will ever know. Michael’s been to war twice. We call Michael “Superman” in our group of friends. He’s just that guy.
Mike is in red shirt, I am in Camoflauge shirt in what looks like an uncompromised position
So, I decided the next 12 months of my life should be spent preparing for this Death Race in 2010 in Pittsfield, Vermont. Of course, the challenge is never the same twice. The events always change. And the course gets harder each year. Basically each outing Andy and Joe over at www.Peak.com ensure you’re ________ to start. Enter any other expletive you’d like again. I love reader participation!
In a nut shell I trained with purpose – ridiculous purpose.
Here’s a clip of my video application submission for Death Race 2010.

Next post I’ll conclude my Death Race 2010 experience.
Live the dream.
