Adventure Race Early Bird Registration - $5
Challenge your mind and your body, while making lasting connections with other professionals, students, and vendors by participating in the inaugural MRPA Adventure Race! You will run or walk, bike, and paddle, all while participating in new and classic recreation events  and mental challenges!

You can sign up as a team of two, or if you are interested in participating, but don’t have anyone brave enough to sign up with you, we will pair you up with another participant! It will be a fun event, one that you may even be able to duplicate back in your own community! Participants will receive a technical tee as a part of their registration. Please indicate your size in the comments section, along with the name of your teammate if you are signing up as a team.
