Team Bio:

Team Average Joes consists of three US Army officers who have been on the 12- and 24-hour AR scene for a few years, competing in the New England area.  In keeping with our "Now that we've done one, let's go as big as we can!" mentality, we took a giant leap of faith last year by competing in Untamed New England 2009, looking to simply survive.  We finished it, and in the process learned much about endurance racing.  We're back again this year, ready to compete...always keeping in mind our favorite AR maxim, "Doesn't matter how good you feel or how bad you feel...it will not last."
