Andrea and Chip break down their experience racing the Cerberus Adventure Stage Race in Newcastle, Virginia — a unique three-day stage race hosted by Adventure Source that mixed long race days with camp life, good food, and time to actually sleep and socialize between stages.
The episode also dives into race strategy, cutoff pressure, navigation lessons, and the mental gears racers find when time starts running out. Andrea finished as the 2nd soloist and 12th overall, while Chip placed 1st as solo and 3rd overall despite a time penalty.
