From the Organizer
Rally your team and get ready for an unforgettable two-hour adventure!
Take on a dynamic 10K course set across our stunning 575-acre farm in the heart of Kentucky’s Bluegrass—where strategy, endurance, and adrenaline collide.
When the race begins, it’s a fast-paced scramble as your team decides which checkpoints to tackle first. Along the course, you’ll encounter 18 unique challenges that may include rock wall climbing, ziplining, canoeing, leading a horse through obstacles, mountain biking, and more. Each checkpoint is designed to test both mind and body, and your team will need to strategize in real time—choosing the right person for each challenge to earn the most points before time runs out - two hours is the limit!
Compete for top honors in male, female, and coed divisions, then head to the finish line to celebrate with food trucks, music, and meaningful community connections.
Even more rewarding, every step you take supports something bigger—funds raised directly support Life Adventure Center’s powerful work empowering individuals impacted by trauma through transformative outdoor adventures.
Every participant receives:
A race t-shirt, hydration, and support along the course, and a chance to win your division and earn a handcrafted trophy!
Adventure awaits—are you ready to answer the call?

From Endurance Grid
Endurance Grid is here to help you understand the sport, decide if it’s the right fit, and learn how to prepare. For course distances, logistics, and race-day specifics, always defer to the race organizer’s event page.
Adventure racing strings together trekking, mountain biking, and paddling — with navigation by map and compass — across a course you have to find as much as finish. Most events are raced as a team, often over many hours or even multiple days.
It rewards the all-rounder and the problem-solver as much as the pure athlete: route choice, teamwork, and staying steady when you're tired and off the map are as much the challenge as the miles.
Trek, mountain bike, and paddle with navigation between checkpoints — from a few hours to multi-day expeditions, usually in teams.
