The Cradle of Liberty Adventure Race is back again this year!

This time we’re having a 24 hour race and a 6 hour sprint race.

It’s one great adventure weekend you don’t want to miss!

Welcome to 24 hours of adventure in the city where America began! The Cradle of Liberty is a balance of urban and wilderness challenges, winding through the historic and scenic landscape in and around the City of Brotherly Love. Racing teams will travel the same streets that our forefathers walked on their way to make history. Teams of 2-3 racers will face all that adventure racing has to offer during the most patriotic season in the most patriotic city in America. The sleepless night that the racers will endure will be for the benefit of those who wait every night for the gift of life.
 

30 miles of running, trekking, orienteering and scootering
50 miles of paved and mountain biking
13 miles of canoe paddling plus fun team challenges

For those who want an equally fun and rewarding challenge, we offer our 6 hour Sprint Adventure Race. This race will start on Sunday June 19, finishing at the same time as the 24 hour race, ending in one big adventure finale! Teams will encounter similar disciplines as the 24 hour race, but in a shorter condensed format.

5 miles of running, trekking, orienteering
10 miles of biking
5 miles of canoe paddling plus fun team challenges.

Grab some friends and come on out for a great, fun challenge!
