Want to try something a little different at KMF? Then how about the Open5 Adventure Race?
If you're into biking, running, and love navigating with maps then this is for you! Basically a treasure hunt for active people.
You visit as many 'controls' as you can by bike and on foot within a 5 hour time limit. You navigate to each control location using a supplied map. Each control is assigned a points value and you will be given a control sheet at the start.
The winner is the person who collects the most points. You can make the event as hard or as easy as you like as there are no fixed routes. You can either run or bike first – it’s up to you – as long as you collect at least one bike control and one run control.
Controls are located on paths and tracks of mixed-terrain and self-navigational around your chosen route is a key aspect. The emphasis is on having a fun day out at your own pace! You can enter as a solo or a pairs team.
