Adventure Racing in Costa Rica is alive and kicking!
Dear adventure
racers,
Grettings from Adventure Racing Costa
Rica! We would like you to present our 2008 agenda, including the 8th edition of our Coast to Coast
Challenge, to be held this coming April. The 2008 adventure racing season in Costa
Rica
is set to go. This is our 10th season organizing races and we are excited about the events we have planned. Here is
the schedule for 2008:
1. The Coast to Coast Challenge (5 day expedition race April 20 - 26) 2. The
Pacuare Adventure Race (3 day stage race August 8, 9 & 10) 3. La Soledad Team MTB Race (1 day race
October 4) 4. 24 Hours of Costa Rica (Expedition race December 6 & 7)
For each of
these events we have designed itineraries for international teams. You just have to show up at the airport ready to
race and we will take care of the rest. The first Race will be the 8th Edition of The Coast to Coast Challenge which
will start on the CaribbeanCoast
at 10am on April 20th 2008. Teams will bike, hike, climb and paddle across Costa Rica through tropical rain and cloud forest, up and over the continental
divide and along country roads passing typical Costa Rican villages. Teams will have 142 hours (almost 6 days) to
complete the 500+ km route across Costa Rica. The winning team is expected to finish in just under 4 days. The
Pacuare Adventure Race and the 24 hours of Costa Rica being much shorter races may be more attractive to those
teams with a busy schedule. Both these races offer a tough PRO route and a more accessible SPORT route for teams that
are just starting in the sport of Adventure Racing.
The La Soledad Team MTB race celebrates its 10th edition this
year. We have put together a fun 9 day adventure trip that includes whitewater rafting on the PacuareRiver, hiking and soaking in hot springs at the Arenal Volcano and relaxing before the big day on the palm fringed beaches of the
PacificCoast. The numerous mountain bike rides incorporated into this trip also enable you to experience
Costa Rica up close while preparing for the Race.
The itineraries
surrounding the Races are our suggestions to give teams a chance to see some of this beautiful country. However, we are
always willing to adapt these if there are specific places you would like to visit or for families with children coming
in support of the team. Coast to Coast Adventures is a full service travel agency so organizing a trip for family
and friends or adding a few days on the beach after the race are all possibilities.
For more info on these races
and the packages that we offer visit our website www.adventureracingcostarica.com
