THE Sprint Series Adventure Race will return to Anglesea on May 5 as participants navigate their way through the race.<\/p>\n

In teams of two, participants will kayak, mountain bike and run as they search for checkpoints across the navigation-based course.<\/p>\n

Sprint Series Adventure Race Course Director Serge Kuror said it’s a fantastic sporting competition.<\/p>\n

“The course is not marked; we give out a map on the morning of the event and you have to navigate your way through the checkpoints,” he said.<\/p>\n

Competitors will have a timing tag on their wrist that is checked at each point as they progress through the course.<\/p>\n

The course details aren’t released until the morning of the event with competitors using a compass and map to find the checkpoints.<\/p>\n

“All these navigation-based events have to be done this way, otherwise people can go and check the course and get an unfair advantage,” Mr Kuror said.<\/p>\n

There are two different courses to choose from, the classic course includes a run between 5 and 7km, mountain biking for 15km and a 5km kayak.<\/p>\n

The course map is kept secret until the morning of the with participants using a map and compass to navigate around the course.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

 <\/p>\n

The novice course consists of a 3km run, between an eight and 10km mountain bike and a 2km kayak.<\/p>\n

“The classic course is a little bit longer and a little bit more technical and the novice, as the name suggests, is for novices and also for family teams,” Mr Kuror said.<\/p>\n

“On the other hand, we have really fast athletes racing for first place in the classic course, professional athletes, triathletes and orienteers.”<\/p>\n

The novice course is open for parents or an adult with kids eight years or over.<\/p>\n

Mr Kuror said the event attracts a wide range of people and they cater for pretty much everyone, with the event being open to all fitness levels.<\/p>\n
