New to Expedition Racing

Jumping into your first multi-day expedition race can be daunting, whether it be the Endless Mountains or another event. Here you will find an evolving and growing bank of resources to help you prepare for your first expedition race, though some of these resources might be useful to more seasoned racers as well!

The most important tip we can offer is to network, read, watch videos, and listen to podcasts. Unless you are jumping into the deepest pool in the river and taking on a multi-day race as your very first adventure race, you likely already know this: adventure racing, more than just about any other sport, is one that privileges experience. So, study up, and reach out with questions. Adventure racers love to talk, share wisdom, and help new racers.
