Intro to Adventure Racing Clinic (3/11 - 3/13)

The purpose of this clinic series is to introduce people who want to get into the sport of Adventure Racing but may have never participated in one before to share the basics. There will be Mentors at each event, assigned one for each team of clinic participants who accompany them throughout this mock Adventure Race experience, sharing their AR expertise, answering questions and ensuring participant safety. 

We have put together the perfect clinic series for you. We're inviting all who are brand new to the sport (having done no more than 1 race) to learn the basics of Adventure Racing from experienced mentors representing multiple Mid-Atlantic & Southeast racing organizations. Adventure Racing is a team multisport (Trekking, Biking, Paddling, Map & Compass Navigation) and we will introduce participants to the gear, strategy, training, and teamwork necessary to complete and have fun while racing! 

This clinic series is for novices or a team with a new member where we spend a full day with you and teammate(s) and give you a complete immersion experience into our sport of Adventure Racing while Demystifying it.
