I set out this morning to take some video and photos of the the first ever Pioneer Day Raft and Run in Provo Utah! You can see all about the race here. The race began at Canyon Glen Park (Provo Canyon) with buses taking participants in buses to the upper Provo river. Teams of eight to twelve ran the river with a raft guide to steer. I got to meet Dave, the organizer of the event and some of the volunteers, all great people who were very helpful and friendly. I hope you enjoy the video Dave. Make sure you watch the HD 1080 version.
After the rafting race, each team had to run a 5k down the canyon from Vivian Park. I was able to catch most of the competitors coming out of the water, and then starting down the canyon. The race ended up at Canyon Glen park and I got to shoot the Quadcopter at the finish line at the end of the run. It was a bit windy and the canyons always hinder the GPS signal so I didn't go very crazy with it.
It was fun to see people having such a good time. A couple of friends of ours came in first for best costume! Congrats to Tina and the Rootin' Tootin' girls.
