Challenge yourself in a non-stop 12-hour event unlike anything North Dakota has ever seen. Extreme North Dakota Adventure Race (END-AR) is the first race ever to be hosted in the Great Plains. It includes trekking/trail running, mountain biking, canoeing, orienteering, climbing, and mystery challenges. Teams of 2 or 3 will have up to 12 hours to finish the course. Test your endurance and teamwork as you tackle the course.
This race is a great first race for athletes new to the sport of adventure racing, but also challenging enough for experienced teams, looking to pit themselves against other top regional athletes. The 75-mile course will include less that 5 miles of pavement, and leave plenty of room for teams to make their own route choices.
The race will be unsupported, so teams will not need support crews.
The course will highlight some of the most beautiful areas in Grand Forks County. Elevation gain is minimal, but his will increase the navigational challenge.
Come see the beauty and adventure that the Great Plains has to offer. You won’t believe the opportunities that exist for exploration!
