Southeast MedWAR
MedWAR is short for Medical Wilderness Adventure Race. It is a unique event that combines wilderness medical challenges with the growing sport of adventure racing. The race was also developed as a tool for teaching and testing the knowledge, skills, and techniques of wilderness medicine, and for promoting teamwork and collegiality among competitors. MedWAR is sanctioned by North American Educational Adventure Racing (NAEAR).
The Southeast MedWAR was the original MedWAR Race. Complete with simulated helicopter crashes, alligator-filed swamps, and ever-unique scenarios, it has continued to challenge competitors for over a decade. You never know what may be around the next turn.
The Medical College of Georgia is proud to host Southeast MedWAR! Come race the oldest and largest MedWAR and put your fitness and medical knowledge to the test.
Format: The race is 12-15 miles of running through various terrains. Racers will also mountain bike, kayak, and do some basic land navigation.
