| 4/26/08 Greenhorn Adventure Race Distance: see: http://www.ex2adventures.com/greenhorn-ar.php Location : Rocky Gap State Park State : Maryland Contact : Jim Harman Phone : 571-251-6034 Fax : Website : www.ex2adventures.com Email : info@ex2adventures.com Additional Info : http://www.ex2adventures.com/greenhorn-ar.php Welcome to Adventure Racing! The third annual Greenhorn AR was created to offer competitors a gateway into the sport of adventure racing. This 2-4 hour sprint adventure race was designed with the beginner in mind. While there is significant challenge built in, this event is fun and highly achievable for the novice racer. The navigation is straight forward, the trails are well marked, and the maps that we provide are excellent. The mountain biking will take racers over mostly non-technical fire roads and pavement but there are some semi-technical singletrack trails to provide an extra challenge. Finally, the paddling will take place on a clear and calm mountain lake. Race Format. Teams of two or three will be tasked with finding 7-15 checkpoints dispersed throughout beautiful Rocky Gap State Park in Western Maryland. These checkpoints must be found on bike, foot, or in a canoe. The exact order and distance of each segment is kept a secret until race day but we can tell you that the course will include the most mileage of biking, followed by trail running, and then paddling (a canoe). There are also plenty of surprises, twists, and decision making in this race, all of which will cost or save your team time. This event was sold out in 2007 so save the date, call your friends, register, and get excited for a great day of adventure racing action. |

This event is really three races in one, allowing athletes to compete in either a 12 hour mountain biking and trail running relay duathlon OR a 6 hour mountain bike relay race OR a 6 hour trail running relay race.

Solos and teams of two will also have the opportunity to test their mountain biking OR trail running skills while racing for 6 hours alongside and at the same time as the duathlon racers.

On the night of the race (9/20/08), racers will be permitted to camp in the huge grassy pit area which is located right next to two gorgeous beaches. Swimming is permitted in the lake and at that time of year, the water temperature should be perfect for those in-between-lap swims. Showers and bathrooms are also available right near the transition and pit areas. For those that do not want to camp, there is a fancy lodge right on site and plenty of bed and breakfasts located right in Cumberland (less than 10 miles away). |
