HOW DOES AN ADVENTURE RACE WORK?
If you’re new to adventure racing, the course is only revealed the day of the race which adds to the fun and challenge. At race registration you will receive a course guide and two waterproof maps of the area with a series of check points (CPs) marked on them. You have 1hrs before the race starts to plan the best route to complete the course.
The course will be made up of multiple legs where you are required to either run, mountain bike or kayak to complete the leg, but don’t worry, your course guide and map will give you all the information, check point locations and check point descriptions you need to complete the course. Check points are easy to find - they are small orange and white orienteering flags and are not hidden.
Event HQ is where you register, collect your maps and race bag, it is also the start and finish line. Kayaks are included in the race entry but you are welcome to bring your own pfd/paddle or hire them for a small cost of $20 p.p. (contact race organiser)
Once your team has collected all check points for each leg in the order described in the course guide, you need to head to the finish line before the 4.5hour cut-off. There will be a time penalty if you are late.
The winning team is the first one to cross the finish line that has collected all the check points.
Hope that makes sense – most of all adventure racing is all about getting out there and having fun!
