Description:

Come spend a few hours running beautiful trails, hiking through environmentally unique scrub pine forests and cypress swamps, riding single-track bike trails and dirt roads, canoeing the Loxahatchee River, pushing your bike through pristine sugar sand, navigating with map and compass, and other special challenges!

The LEACh 6-8 hour AR promises to offer a challenging course in beautiful natural areas: single track, double track, paved trail, cross-county, and lovely swamp and river travel.  Teams (2 & 3 person, co-ed) can expect great challenges and great fun!  Canoes, two paddles & PFD's are provided.  No kayak paddles or 3rd paddle will be allowed.  This is a primarily UNMARKED course so know how to read a map and navigate with a compass.

Or try the sprint version (the Lil Bleeder), perfect for newcomers or fun-lovers!  The Lil Bleeder 2 hour AR covers a shorter MOSTLY MARKED course with about 2 hours of biking, running, paddling, challenges, and adventure for 2 & 3 person teams - co-ed or single sex.  Canoes, two paddles & PFD's are provided.  No kayak paddles or 3rd paddle will be allowed.

Back again to the series of suckers is The Tick 4 Mile Adventure Run.   The run will be filled with its own brand of challenges.  The course will be a mix of paved and unpaved trail with a few twists in between.  Water will be stationed on the course.
