–Tyler Adventure Sprint Race SHORT
Approximately 2 hours and 10 miles
THREE member teams are welcome to come test their skill and endurance in this non-stop adventure race. Only three-person teams for this race, due to built in equipment rentals! Team price for this race is $180, if paid by Sept. 11, 2010, or $225 after.
The race will not include navigation but you will be given a map and need to bring a compass, but don’t worry if you don’t know how use it, we’ll be glad to help! The entire race does not consist of navigation (except for one really small section, i.e. you may have to locate a building on your map or something like that and go to it) and the course will be easier than Tyler Adventure Sprint (going on at the same time) and is made for beginners. Teams should finish in around TWO hours!
