TEAM LADYPENGUINS FUNDRAISING IS PUMPED TO CREATE THE SEQUEL TO LAST YEAR'S INAUGURAL EVENT! ONCE AGAIN, WE ARE BRINGING 2 ADVENTURE RACE LENGTH OPTIONS (13HR OR 5HR) AND THIS YEAR WE ARE HEADQUARTERED AT WYALUSING STATE PARK!

* Adventure racing is an off-road multidisciplinary sport that involves biking, paddling, running/trekking, and other special challenges, all while navigating with a map and compass (GPS is not allowed). It is a team sport in which groups of 2-4 racers must stick together for the duration of the entire event and cross the finish line together. Soloists as well will be allowed for both our planned race durations!



* Every race course is different. Teams might do each discipline multiple times throughout a race and the order in which they are required to do them varies from race to race. Most often the official race course is kept a secret until the morning of the race, when racers arrive and are given maps detailing the locations (check points) they must navigate to, which order they must find them in, and which disciplines they will need to do during the event.

BE SURE TO "LIKE" AND "FOLLOW"@LADYPENGUINMUD ON SOCIAL (FB & IG) TO GET SECRETS AND TIPS ABOUT THE COURSE!

Head on over to our website and check out the details on the events there. We will keep those pages up to date with mileage and elevations that participants can expect to encounter on course come race day. Sign up here and make sure your USARA stuff is dealt with - then it's best to get RSVP'd on our site for those regular updates. If you are signing up closer to race day, check out the most up to date information and all our progressive updates there on the site!

We will say now that WE PLAN TO MAKE THE 5HOUR COURSE 'BIKE OPTIONAL'. Although this will hurt your chances of a podium finish, as an organization we understand gear and cost is a barrier to entry. If you can get a ride to the course on race day, we want you to be able to race.

We are also happy to announce that one night of dorm lodging is included in your registration! Check Out our extra content page for details! You can opt to purchase a second night during registration if needed. You will choose Friday or Saturday for your included lodging while choosing your swag and there will be an additional option to purchase the other of the nights or a dorm style bed for a guest/ spectator.
