For 2010 we will keep two categories: Expert for advance racers and SPORT for strong athletes with limited experience in adventure racing. Both categories will have up to 10 hours to complete the course, but Expert category will include more technical disciplines that require special skills.
Expert category navigation will be on the Pro level and will be used in every discipline of the Expert course: including paddling, white water swimming, mountain biking, and trekking. Mountain biking will include technical single track, gravel roads, paved roads and even some off road riding.
Sport category navigation will be more obvious, but still will require good knowledge of map and compass use. Biking sections will be mostly on gravel roads with some shortcut options through single track. If you are new to the sport, or do not have a good navigator on your team, this category is for you. Paddling will be on flat moving water down and upstream. Get ready!
Teams of 2, 3 and solo racers are welcome.
