Today I ferried from split to the island of Hvar. It turned out to be day 2 of a major Spartan hvar sporting event. Similar to the tough mudder in the states, this competition involved hilly running with many other rope climbs and carry 40 lb weights up steep rocky slopes and jumping over fire and swimming and then rope climbing etc. In this tiny island town are 4000 participants doing multiple events. Today is the last day of the competition. On the boat ride over I met a daughter and mom traveling and we hiked and visited the nearby castle.
