Adventure racing is a multi-discipline sport that combines various outdoor activities such as running, mountain biking, and kayaking. Teams or individuals navigate through diverse terrains, often using maps and compasses to find checkpoints. Races can last from a few hours to several days, testing both physical endurance and mental skills. Participants in adventure racing must be prepared for unpredictable weather and challenging environments. Events can take place in remote locations, requiring racers to be self-sufficient and skilled in outdoor survival. The sport promotes teamwork, as racers often rely on each other for support and strategy throughout the competition.
