MIDWEST CHAMPIONSHIP ADVENTURE RACE

Race Description:

"There will be navigation, trekking (running or hiking), mountain biking. Both Courses will have slow moving river paddling. (canoes, pfds, paddles provided!!) There may, OR MAY NOT, be surprise challenges for ALL courses. The team that completes all the checkpoints (or more than other teams) with the fastest time will win the race.

There will be several checkpoints that are mandatory (transition areas), but most are not.

A team could choose to skip checkpoints and shorten the course and still have an official finish! You will have access to the gear, food and drink that you have on your bike or in your pack. The maps are pre-plotted topographic maps from mytopo.com. Your team will need a basic understanding of terrain features and distance measure. There will be very few rules of travel, teams will choose their own route/strategy (with mode of travel specified for checkpoints)"
