Sunflower State Games™

 

Note:  Teams will complete the Team Entry Form.  Include a team name and both participants’ individual information on the Team Waiver Form.  Each participant must sign the waiver.

 

Format: Just as triathlon is built on the sport of marathon, adventure races utilize the multisport format of triathlon.  Except in adventure racing, it’s done as a team out in the woods and on the trails, with only a map and compass to guide you!  Teams of two can expect to mountain bike on some fantastic single track trails, canoe on the beautiful Perry Lake and run and trek, all using a map and compass!  All team members will start the race together and finish the race together, and there may be some fun mystery events along the way!

 

The Course: The course for the race will remain a secret until racer check-in; when all teams will receive their maps and detailed race information.  The course for the 2008 Sunflower State Games Adventure Race is going to be fast and a lot of fun!  Teams will be finding checkpoints in one of the most beautiful State Parks in Kansas, which offers some of the best single track trails in the state!  The expected winning time will be around 2 hours, and all teams will have up to 5 hours to complete the course. Teams should come prepared to complete the following disciplines:
Paddling: 2-3 miles
Mountain Biking: 10-15 miles
Trail Running and Trekking: 4-6 miles
