Big Chill Adventure Race
Bastrop, TX
Are you ready to get up and get out?  Think you are tough enough for the Too Cool challenge?
Back for it’s 7th year running, The Big Chill Adventure Race offers something for veterans and beginners alike.  We serve up all new stuff this year as well as some old favorites plus all the things you have come to expect from us… a tough as nails race, awesome shwagg, cool special tests, and more. New to the ‘Chill’ this year is Too Cool’s famous “skip point”.  Teams that bring in 5 canned goods per racer on the team are permitted to skip a checkpoint during the race.  The race will happen rain, snow, or shine, so be prepared for any type of weather.  Race headquarters will be at South Shore Park at Lake Bastrop. If you need camping, we highly recommend you reserve tent sites or cabins soon because this is a very popular park.
We set the bar high…now it’s up to you to reach it!

Big Chill  Sprint Race:  Teams of 2 or 3 will run, bike, paddle, facing team challenges and obstacles along the way.  This course is designed for the beginner in mind!  Too Cool will be providing the boats (real hard sided canoes), racers just need to have a bike and a camelbak!  Be prepared for approximately 2-3 miles of paddling, 8-10 miles of biking, and 3-5 miles of trekking plus some surprises.  Estimated winning time is 2 hours.  Stay for the after party where we tap the keg, break open the refreshments and warm up the band.  We will cap this race at 100-2 person teams.  Please register early.
