Virginia State Parks Adventure Series
|
Posted By: Hija Chang on February 18, 2024 Presented by Dominion Energy Welcome to the most innovative race series in Virginia sports, the Virginia State Parks Adventure Series! This one-of-a-kind race series features a wide-ranging selection of competitive events held in Virginia State Parks. Events include adventure races, running events, mountain bike races, cyclocross races, adventure triathlons, sprint triathlons, a one-of-a-kind gravel time trial, and an old-school mountain bike enduro race. Participants can win great prizes in one of two ways: amassing points in the Competition Category or simply participating in the Achievement Category. In a nutshell, the Competition Category is scored on your top 8 race point levels. We have five bonus races worth an extra 50 points (150 vs 100), so strategy is important. Only one race per race weekend will be scored for points. Please make sure you register for the designated races to be scored in the Competition Category. The Achievement Category is scored on the number of races you complete. All categories in a series events race will be counted toward your race total, not just the designated scored race. Race more races win better prizes! Awards and Prizes can be found in the Achievement Awards and Competition Awards links below. PLEASE THOROUGHLY READ THE GUIDELINES AND RULES (PDF) FOR MORE DETAILS! https://www.dcr.virginia.gov/state-parks/a... In our effort to keep the Series fresh, we have added four new races for 2024: The DMV Adventure Race The Arbor Day 15k Run The Shenandoah River Aquablaze The Fall Foliage Adventure Race And we bumped our number of bonus point races from 3 to 5.
