Kayaking
Approx. 3 km of kayaking in a single or double kayak. Mass start in the water.
Bring your own kayak or rent one in advance.

Mountain Biking
Approx. 8 km of mountain biking on gravel, pavement, and moderate cross-country trails (no drops, stunts, or any advanced trails)

Trekking / Trail Running
Walk, run or scamper along the trails (approx. 5 km) looking for various checkpoints along the way.

Mystery Challenges
We can’t tell you what they are, but they will test your mental, physical and creative agility. A potential equalizer between the super “jocks” and the super “out-for-fun’ers” (or are you a jock and lots of fun?) These fun challenges will appear at various points along the way, sometimes when you least expect them.

Expect to finish in 1.5 to 2.5 hours and then enjoy the post-race party!
