What is adventure racing?
An adventure race is a multi-sport race which requires navigating a course with a map and compass utilizing combinations of non-motorized disciplines, often including trekking, mountain biking, paddling and fixed ropes (ascending and/or rappeling).
Most adventure races require participants to be on teams of two to four people, either mixed (coed) or same gender (open). Teams are responsible for travelling through a series of checkpoints and must complete the race together.
Races are anywhere from 3 hours to 10 days in length and can range in distance from just a few miles to 500+ miles.
