Additional Information

After an incredible second adventure race in 2009, Calleva is back for round 3. Don't miss the most exciting race in the Washington, DC metro area.

This year we will have two categories: Expert for advance racers and SPORT for strong athletes with limited experience in adventure racing. Both categories will have up to 10 hours to complete the course, but Expert category will include more technical disciplines that require special skills.

Expert category navigation will be on the Pro level and will be used in every discipline of the Expert course: including paddling, white water swimming (on booggie boards), mountain biking, and trekking. Mountain biking will include technical single track, gravel roads, paved roads and even some off road riding.

Sport category navigation will be more obvious, but still will require good knowledge of map and compass use. Biking sections will be mostly on roads with some shortcut options through single track. The Sport Category will include the famous Calleva challenges. If you are new to the sport, or do not have a good navigator on your team, this category is for you. There will be no refund after June 1st and no refund of active.com fees at any time.
