Blackwater Escape and Evasion Adventure Race

The Blackwater Escape and Evasion adventure race has been rescheduled, and will now take place April 25-26, 2009 in Moyock, North Carolina. Furthermore, the race has undergone a change in format, switching from a 24-hour race to a 12-hour event.

THE COURSE!

The course has been designed so that the fastest teams will spend approximately:
• 5-7 hours running/trekking
• 5-7 hours mountain biking on farm roads, dirt roads, paved roads and single track trails.
• 5-7 hours paddling in creeks, large rivers and open water. The paddling will be done in 2 person kayaks/duckies.
Teams will also be:
• Swimming in a lake
• Top-rope climbing
• Rappelling
• Running the BW obstacle course
• Orienteering
• Doing the infamous SEAL team “log PT
• Taking part in other special BW events.
The Moyock area is relatively flat with some wooded and marshy areas. Temperatures in November can range from lows in the below freezing range to mid 70s. There can also be freezing rain or snow during this time of year.
