THE GREAT BIG UNKNOWN ADVENTURE RACE
Tired of boring races where you know exactly how far you have to run? Want to shake things up a bit and roll the dice? Want to live a little on the wild side? Want to run something you NEVER have run before? This is it. With the race being a distance between 2 miles and 16 miles you will have no idea how far the race is until you cross the finish line. Thats right- toe the line and pace yourself for one big adventure. You might run only 2 miles, perhaps 3,4,5 or 6? Shoot it might just be the whole sha-bang at 16 miles. You might have your hydration vest filled and pockets all gued up with nutrition only to be done in 3 miles. Or you might just need everything you got to finish the 16......... Don't let the fear of preparation keep you from this one of kind adventure.........see you at the finish!
