It’s back! Let’s hit the water with a bang! Join the 2023 Adventure Sports Virtual Challenge going on throughout the month of March to see who can log the most miles. Choose one division, two divisions or take the Ultimate Challenge and go for the Trifecta! This year Adventure Sports USA have teamed up with The Crossing for Cystic Fibrosis, an amazing organization that puts on an 80 mile endurance race from Bimini to Florida inspired by the incredible health benefits of the ocean for those living with cystic fibrosis. All donations go directly to them and Adventure Sports USA have included a portion where individual fundraising is possible to generate as much awareness for the cause.
If getting out on the water is not enough of an excuse to join, compete for the glory of being the champion, as well as incredible prizes and a goodie bag sent to all! Don’t forget the sooner you sign up, the more raffles you are entered into!
> Raffle 1 Adventure Sports Care Package: Friday February 24th > Raffle 2 Adventure Sports Care Package: Wednesday March 1st > March 6 – 12 Miles Count Double Week > March 15 Challenger Raffle
It’s not all about 1st, 2nd or 3rd. Get to your divisions mid-mileage points by March 15th for your chance to win the ultimate Raffle Prize!
Participating is simple ! Register on the RunSignUp platform by selecting the sport(s) of your choice. If you choose two sports in a pack, you get a discount. And you can even embark on the Ultimate Trifeca, combining kite or OC + wingfoil + SUP, to try and win a Garmin Instinct Surf, and thus prove to everyone that you are the ultimate water·wo·men!
Then all you have to do is upload your tracking files to RunSignUp. RunSignUp supports GPX, FIT or TCX files. These files can be created from most tracking applications such as Garmin Connect, Strava, Apple Watch, NK Speedcoach, etc. Important: the download must be completed within 36 hours of the end of the activity.
To qualify, you will also need to follow @adventuresportsusa on social media and also tag @adventuresportsusa #adventureit #ASvirtualchallenge on your challenge posts. Everything will be reposted, so you will see where you are compared to your opponents!
