About the Event |
The 2013 Planet Adventure Urban Sprint Adventure Race requires teams to trek, ride and paddle their way through up to 6 hours of challenging fun and teamwork. Teams will also encounter special challenges not common in many sprint races. This is a great race for both experienced and beginning
racers.
Experienced racers can expect to finish the entire course well within the 6 hours allotted. The course is being designed so that most teams should be able to finish the entire course within 6 hours.
Important Race Times |
Pre-Race Check-In:
Pre-race check-in will be at the race start on Saturday, August 10th at 6:30 am. All team members must be present to sign
waivers, pick-up packet, etc… If you save time, print the waiver from the website and bring it signed.
Race Start Time: The 2013 Planet Adventure Urban Sprint Race will start at 8:00AM. Please be on time. Pre-race briefing will start at 7:30 AM. This is very IMPORTANT! Race course details will be given at this time, maps distributed, etc.
*All racers need to start arriving to the start line, near the patio, at 7:50 AM for final race instructions.*
Race cut-off: 2:00PM. We want as many teams to finish as possible. Be aware, as in the past, teams arriving after the 2:00 PM cut-off will be penalized by losing a checkpoint for each minute late.
Weather |
Weather in August is hot. Temperatures in the 90's aren't unusual. While we expect you to have plenty of opportunities to cool yourself during the race (yes, there will be a possibility of getting wet) - most importantly you should hydrate regularly. We will have medical personal at the race; however you're ultimately responsible for yourself and your teammates. This is Adventure Racing (keyword ... Adventure), so for those that are new to the sport, you need to know and understand that it's very important that you plan accordingly with hydration and first aid needs until professional medical assistance or race staff can reach you. Since you will be racing in and around downtown Indy, there will be ample opportunities to find water sources.
Rules |
There aren't many rules in adventure racing...each team must carry a fully charged cell phone. *The team cell phone is used for immediate emergency assistance only. All Planet Adventure racers must wear official race bib provided by race management at all times. All racers must complete the minimum course requirements as prescribed to be considered as an official finisher. All racers must stay within 50 feet of each other or face a time penalty or disqualification. All racers must cross the finish line together. All racers must show good sportsmanship to fellow racers, volunteers, spectators, etc. All teams must turn in their passports at the end of the race to be considered finishers. No outside assistance is permitted at any time. Teams may help other teams. HAVE FUN!
Awards |
Top 3 teams in each division will be awarded. (Place prizes will
be at the discretion of race management for divisions under 5 teams)
Gear List |
Please be sure to read over the gear list and make sure you have what is required. We try to keep the gear requirements to a minimum for our 'Sprint' races, but again, make sure you have what is posted on our gear list.
Volunteers |
We can always use more volunteers for our races. Volunteering
is a great way to get involved in Adventure Racing. Email
Nancy Gawrys at: ncgawrys@yahoo.com if you can help out.
