What an amazing race. This year truly had it all. Amazing and tough flying, psychedelic scenery, and big miles on the ground through Utah's wonders. Aaron Durogati battled a nasty virus throughout but hung on with another incredible win, defending his title and North American athlete Eric Klammer snuck into second place ousting the great Pal Takats on the final day with really awesome flying day one and two and then a convincing first place run on the final day.

The winds today are going to be nuclear and very unsafe for flying. So the task committee has come up with something incredibly fun and interesting. Our athletes are headed to Capital Reef National park and going to pound out a race on foot to decide who is going to make the podium. In the Adventure Division we have a 4 way tie in first place going into today and in the Pro Division 5 points separates 1st through 5th place. Everything is on the line!
After a huge day 1 our task committee hasn't backed off even a little bit and two big tasks for both Divisions have been set.
After three amazing presentations from our European friends Pal Takats, Markus Anders and Aaron Durogati on Tuesday and Wednesday nights it's time for some racing! The task has been set and at 0800 this morning task one of the 2023 Global Rescue XRedRocks gets underway!
