what is adventure racing?
People from a variety of backgrounds are attracted to adventure racing (AR).
It's rare when someone has experience with every discipline so don't let learning new sports deter you!
The basic disciplines of adventure racing include mountain biking, trekking (trail running), paddling (usually kayaking) and navigation (similar to orienteering).
Racing as a team of 3-4, typically co-ed, is a unique aspect of AR. You complete the entire race together (it's not a relay). Check out the forum to find teammates and the calendar to find races and events!
