The
Performance Adventure Racing Series will provide:
 | Race Management and Challenges: Printed
instructions. A thoroughly
tested, sanctioned race course, with a great variety of
physically, mentally, and emotionally challenging activities that will
provide you with more than enough to discuss around the coffee shop,
water cooler at work, or among your non-participating buddies. If you
do not feel sufficiently challenged upon finishing, please
let us know -- click here. |
| Special Tests / Mystery Challenges: All equipment and materials necessary
for special tests. These tests are designed to test teamwork, mental
ability, and sometimes, physical strength. The Performance Adventure Racing staff and volunteers will be
on hand to help guide Teams with the tests if needed. Tests may
include: wall climbing, carries, archery, orienteering, low
crawl, Tyrolean traverse, swimming, knot tying, negotiating cargo
nets, and memory or mental quizzes. |
| Secure Transition/Storage Area: There is a
fenced, secured transition area where you can keep your race
equipment. However, do not leave unnecessary valuable belongings in this area. |
| Safety Personnel at the Course: There will be
race management personnel along the course to provide check points and
to ensure safety in race activities. Follow their guidance and
directions. |
| First Aid: There will be EMS nearby, should the need
arise. If you need help, look for a race management/crew member and
they will call in your location to get assistance. The primary EMS
station will be near the Main Transition area just outside the Race
site. |
| Radio/phone Communications:
To link Check Points, various points on the course, and the Main
Transition. |
| Oh, yes... there will be custom-designed
Race Finisher shirts for all Team members to keep. There will be race packets with all the goodies we
can acquire, often including energy gels, body lubricants, and special offers.
There may also be other souvenirs for those completing the race course within
the time limits. |
