Details
This year, the race will be a 72-hour, non-stop race in Breckenridge, CO. Teams will race on foot, mountain bike, canoe, and whatever we throw in to get back to the finish. There are up to 5 transition areas and checkpoints to retrieve during the journey. Official finishers are only required to visit all the transition areas from the start to the finish line. All checkpoints are optional; however, teams are ranked by how many checkpoints they retrieve and when they finish. All courses are subject to change without notice due to permissions from government agencies.
This year's race contains no whitewater or ropes sections.
Race Tips from the Race Director
Navigation will be very straightforward with some tricks thrown in however, get familiar with using a TOPO map. There will be no plotting UTM coordinates during this year's race and all information forms and maps are waterproof. Train primarily to climb uphill on foot and by bike. Be prepared for any weather; September in Colorado at high elevations could be anything from cold rain in the low 40s at night to highs in the 80s during the day. If you have a chance to visit Colorado before the race, then do it.
