Team Thule win the Adventure Race World Championships 2011!
Team Thule Adventure of Sweden has won the 2011 Adventure Race World Championships in Tasmania.
It took more than five days of racing and, despite the extremely tough course being largely dominated by Team Seagate, the Swedes pipped rival teams at the post, thanks to a four-hour penalty time that Seagate had to serve out. Team Silva took second place with Seagate coming in third after serving out what must have been a very long four hours.
79 teams from all corners of the world began the adventure race with six of those teams forced out. The remaining teams continue to race through Tasmania’s rugged wilderness and wet weather across a 700km course. The event will officially finish later in the week.
