Details
Experience the best views in the Shenandoah Valley on this 13.1 mile
point-to-point course, which connects Waynesboro’s Ridgeview
Park
to nearby Augusta County’s Stuarts Draft Park. The race
features gently rolling hills,
mountain vistas and beautiful serene river crossings, all of which add
up to make this course a "must do" spring race. The race will be
completely
supported with fully stocked aid stations and a post race party
atmosphere at the 4th Annual XtremeFest of the Blue Ridge. If your legs
are still up for it after the event, scale the rock climbing wall or
take a peaceful
paddle in a kayak along the South River.
What's included -- Some of the best views in the Valley, performance
wicking t-shirt, fully stocked aid stations, post race party with food
& drink, finishers certificate and the satisfaction of knowing
that a portion of your race fee will be used to help keep our kids
ACTIVE!
