Adventure Race for novices

Put some ADVENTURE in your weekend! The annual Adventure Race Tune-Up event is a great way for you and your friends to test your outdoor endurance by trekking, biking, and paddling your way checkpoint-to-checkpoint on our wilderness adventure course. This race is designed for novices to complete at a casual pace. - Running/Trekking: 5 to 6 miles of running or hiking through the woods to locate checkpoints that are identified on a map. - Biking: 10 to 15 miles of biking on trails and roads that are accessible to mountain bikes and cyclocross bikes. - Paddling: 2 to 3 miles of paddling. Canoes, paddles, and PFDs are provided and are covered in your registration fee. - Special Challenges incorporate both physical and mental activities. We keep these a secret until you?re out on the course. - Navigation: Teams are given a series of maps and will be expected to use their map reading skills to proceed from checkpoint to checkpoint. Maps are typically a combination of USGS maps, aerial photography, and/or orienteering maps. And perhaps the best part of the AR Tune-Up is its price. We?re one of the cheapest adventure races in the Midwest!
