Day Stakes continues


The competitors are putting on quite a show for their families and friends. On the Tri-tower challenge. (Team 22) Zajkowski and Jenkins' time on the Tri-tower challenge beat (Team 21) Simms and Stackpole's time by one second. These two teams started day stakes with a mere 29 points separating them.
The Tri-tower Challenge starts with a climb up a 60-foot "rock" wall and rappel down the side, followed by rope climbing and fast roping on two 20-foot towers.
The teams are rotating every hour. Two of the events today are "mystery events."
The teams will face a land navigation course tonight. To pass, they will need to find a set number of required points inside of the time limit. There will also be a number of bonus points that the teams may choose to pursue in an effort to improve their standings.
Media shooting the competition include Zaragoza Films and a Canadian crew shooting episodes for season 5 of "Truth, Duty, Valour." The Canadian crew is actively marketing their series to American networks, and their producer says that they are close to signing a contract with SpikeTV.
