Runners, Bikers and Paddlers This Race is for You!

We are very excited to gather a team for a new and exhilarating race. We have decided to replace our annual Reach the Beach relay race for a more diverse race that includes more athletes, not just our runners! So paddlers, mountain bikers, and trail runners pay close attention!

On September 12, 2015 we will gather 9 athletes to travel by foot, bike, and kayak over 60 miles in way northern NH! That’s right from Pittsburg, NH to Colebrook, NH! This race is called North Country Endurance Challenge. This will be first come first serve so please let me know if you are interested and I will get you added to the roster.  

Here is what North Country Endurance has to say about their challenge,  “Multi-sport racing like this is rare in North America; a point-to-point off-road course combining several legs of paddling, biking, and running is hard to weave together given the permitting hurdles and insurance climate unique to the U.S.A. To further complicate things, this is a course through the mountains meaning big ups/downs and remote trails! We’re fortunate to have such great partners to help make this happen. The community in the North Country is showing unprecedented support for this event, so we hope you enjoy the fruits of this relationship and make the most of this special racing opportunity in North Country.”
