Team “SCAT” Happens: Chris and Gidget Hall

As Team “SCAT” Happens, we are new members to the NMARC, and to the adventure racing arena. We live in Sandia Heights and are very active. We ski, board, run and ride. Have three kids and stay busy ALL the time. We have yet to assign an “official” team captain, but together we make an excellent team in life and love.

We hope to gain extensive knowledge about this exciting sport and as a result, become even fitter and healthier. We are also very excited to be sharing this experience with some of our good (favorite) friends. Our first year’s goal is to finish each race better then the first and enter at least one 6-12 hour race.

Any tips and tricks are greatly appreciated!

Just get out there and do it!
