Helly Hansen's Adventure Series combines running, cycling and canoeing
The start of Helly Hansen's one-day adventure race series, organised by TrailPlus, is coming up soon, and there's still time to enter the multi-discipline event. There'll be five dates across autumn 2008 and spring 2009, two more than the 2007 series.
The five one-day races can be entered individually or as a series. Blending physical challenge and teamwork , they are designed for teams of three, who must stay together throughout the race. Each adventure race features a three-way mix of trail running (10k), challenging mountain biking (25k) and canoeing on flat water in an inflatable kayak (1.5k).
The dates and venues are:
Sunday 21 September: Cannock Chase, Staffordshire
Sunday 19 October: Longmoor Camp, Hampshire
Sunday 7 December: Hawley, Nr Camberley, Surrey
Sunday 1 February (2009): Pirbright, Surrey
Sunday 29 March (2009): YMCA National Centre, Lake District
