The Dirt - Adventure Racing according to Robyn Benincasa
presented by Merrell - Wigwam

Moab is a long way from New Zealand both in terms of distance and weather. Neil Jones and Jeff mitchell have made it to Moab and are experiencing 100+ degree temps, that's a far cry from the 40 degree temps of their homeland.

Robyn Benincasa and Ian Edmund have yet to arrive in Utah, but will be there shortly.

This weather is nothing new to them, team Merrell/Wigwam has multiple Eco-Challenge, Raid Gauloises and Southern Traverse wins among others and top 5 placement in virtually every expedition length adventure race on the planet. They would be considered the veterans in any field.

Right now her "boys" are sussing out the town of moab and finding the best places to eat, the mayhem will begin soon enough.
