Survive the Ark

Postponed until August 2011

Paddle - Trail Run - Mountain Bike

There will be many more details to follow, but currently these following details are available:

- "Survive the Ark" can be challenged in Solo or Tandem (2 person), categories.
- Although this event is designed as a 3 day stage race, each race can be entered as a lone event.
- Each event will offer 3 distances: Short course, Challenge Course, and the Ultra.
- To compete in the 3 day stage race standings, the same race distance category must be consistent through the 3 events.
- Onsite tent camping is available or nearby accomodations can be arranged in Wakefield.
- Buffet style breakfasts and lunch and dinner BBQ's will be available on site.
- The paddle section can be completed in canoes or kayaks at the racer's discretion.
- This is a "Festival Style" event. Although there will undoubtedly be a considerable amount of pain and suffering out there on the course, the camping area(s) are all about a fun, social atmosphere. There will be aid stations on the course, but camping is self supported. Again though, we will provide some prepared food buffets and BBQ's at reasonable cash prices.
