What is a Sprint Adventure Race?

A Sprint Race lasts between 2-3 hours, and the events include paddling, mountain biking, running/trekking, and mystery events.  The running segments are up to 5 miles, the Mt. Biking Segments are up to 15 miles, and the paddling segment can be up to one hour.  Bring your compass as you will need to find a couple points on the map… do not worry as we will go over compass and map prior to the event starting.

 

What if I am new and am unsure of racing?

Come & give it a try – the events are intended for everyone to finish.

 

How difficult are the mountain biking segments?  What type of bike will I need, i.e. full suspension or hard-tail? 

Mountain biking is usually not technical, on dirt and gravel paths, jeep trails, or paved roads.  Given the flatness of the trails used, a full-suspension bike would be excessive – a hard-tail bike is sufficient.

 

What will I need to race?

Not too much is required for these races: each racer needs a bike and an approved bike helmet, running shoes, tandem inflatable kayak, paddles, and PFD’s. (Canoes and hardshell kayaks are allowed – check in with race director).

 

What if I don’t have a kayak and/or a mountain bike?

Let me know ahead of time and I will see what I can do.

 

What else will I need?

Food, water, change of clothes, sunscreen, etc.

 

Will this be part of a three race series?
