Races

8 Hour

This goal in this Adventure Race format is to bring your team together across the finish line with the most CPs. Participants are provided a set of topographical maps with Checkpoint (CP) locations plotted. Each team determines their own route to as many CPs as possible in 8 hours. You will know you've found a CP by the bright orange flag. Teams must return to the finish line before the race cutoff time. Details of the course (even the Start / Finish) are withheld until a designated time prior to the race Start. Racers can expect to Bike between 30-40 miles and hike on foot 3-6 miles. But it is common for teams to choose to skip a section of the course in favor of focusing on other sections. Two or three Water Stations will be available. A detailed information packet will be distributed to all participants prior to the race.

Organiser's description

Adventure Race at the Little Miami Scenic Trail in Cincinnati, OH

Teams will Bike, Trek, and Navigate to collect Checkpoints over a large geographical area. You will have a fancy paper map and a magnetic compass - no GPS assistance allowed. Yes, you may get a little lost at times, but you'll figure it out, and probably love it.

The beauty of the area is in the terrain formed by the Little Miami River and the proximity of untamed nature and well-curated civilization. You will be amazed at the variety of your surroundings, from rural to suburban to historic. We will teach some of that rich history as part of your adventure.

Still not sure exactly what to expect? I understand - that is part of the appeal and challenge of this sport. For those who are new to this type of event, we welcome you and well support you. You will also find experienced participants to be friendly and helpful as they welcome you right in. And when you finish, you will know that you and your team just did something special.

For experienced participants, well, this course is going to ask a lot of you. But it's also going to deliver a satisfying combination of strategic route planning and physical achievement. By rising to the challenge, you will sharpen your skills and inspire others to learn and grow.
