Adventure Xstream Summit County - Race Update #3

All information for the event is now final. Below is a To Do list for all athletes. These instructions will ensure you are prepared for the event and that racer check-in will go smoothly. Please see the previous race updates as well as the gear list as some changes were made in the last couple of weeks.

If you have any questions about the event please let us know. We look forward to seeing you at racer check-in at the Frisco Nordic Center.

GPS Tracking:
The 24 hour racers will be carrying GPS units. So, friends and family can watch from home. Be sure to check out the Live Race updates and post shout outs to your favorite team. Go to www.CheckpointTracker.com.

Parking:
There is a lot of parking available at the Frisco Nordic Center and next to the Baseball fields just past the Nordic Center. If this is full, overflow parking is available at the Frisco Marina. Sprint & 12hr racers should arrive early enough on Saturday to check-in and if necessary have enough time to park and walk back from the Frisco Marina should the parking lot be full.

Paddle Section/Boats & Gear:
All 2 person and 4 person teams will be required to use the kayaks provided by the event. We do not provide life vests or paddles. Additionally, teams will not be permitted to make alterations to the kayaks.

Solo athletes are required to bring your own kayak of choice for the race. We have secured 20 solo aire tomcat kayaks that solos can rent for $25.00. The kayaks will be ready for you at the transition area of the race so you don't have to transport them. They are on a first come first served basis. To reserve a boat see race update #1.
