Race options

Without having to fly/drive across the country the best option for an additional USARA Qualifying race is the Sep 6 - Sep 7 Thunder Rolls Adventure Race - 24hr Illinois City, IL

The 6th annual "Thunder Rolls", 24 hour adventure race will follow the trails, waterways, and migration routes of Chief Black Hawk and the Sauk and Fox Indians of the 1800's. This traditional style, unsupported, expedition style race will involve canoeing, trail running, bushwhacking, coasteering, mountain biking, navigation and ropes. Teams of 3 will travel 100 miles through two states. Expect a great North Face Fleece top, racer gifts, and after race pizza. The race is a USARA Regional Qualifier and in the CheckPointZero National Series. The cost is still only $450 / team for the 24 hour race.
