Entering your first Adventure Race.

Some suggestions:
1. Just do it!  Bite the bullet, enter online and turn up on the day.  Don't be afraid to email or phone the race organiser with any questions and simply make a note and ask on the day.  There will be a plethora of advice available from friendly racers and marshals.
2. Send a SAE to Tri-Adventure at 27 Somerset Road, Teddington, Middlesex, TW11 8RT.  We will send you a map from a previous race for you to peruse and mull over.  This will give you an idea of the distances covered, the maps, route planning and the opportunity to head out to a course and trial the event in your own time.
3. Volunteer at an adventure race.  See the event in action, look at how it works, review the maps, check out racers strategy and kit, chat to like minded people, enjoy a bacon sandwich and unlimited tea!
