Race Date: Sunday, August 12th, 2012
Start Time: 9:00 AM
58212 403 Avenue
Zumbro Falls, MN 55991
Equipment:
- Kayak: Bring your own kayak or canoe if you have one, or you may contact one of our race sponsors "Boulder Dam Canoe & Kayak" to rent one. They have provided us with a great rate for a kayak rental. $20 includes the kayak, paddle and life jacket. They have also agreed to provide access to the boats from 4-6pm on Saturday if you'd like to get familiar with the equipment before the race.
- Bike: You will need a bike capable of "off-road" use. This is a not an "extreme" course, you will not have to cross logs or anything too "technical". However, a road bike with skinny tires will not handle the off-road terrain very well. Also, if the conditions are wet, an off-road tire will perform much better.
- Run: A good pair of running shoes is all that is required here. Some may prefer "trail running shoes" that offer greater stability for off-road terrain. You will be running on hiking trails, there may be loose dirt, gravel or even mud so plan accordingly.
