Q What is NYARA?
A We are a grassroots not-for-profit association made up of athletes from all types of outdoor related activities. We are working hard to promote and foster adventure racing in our surrounding area. Our mission is to join individuals with similar skills into teams, and offer technical assistance to one another. We offer informal group and team training sessions where all members are covered by medical insurance. We promote and direct our own trail running, paddling, biking and orienteering events. We also make a donation to a selected local charity or environmental group in the region where each event is held.
Q What is Adventure Racing?
A Adventure racing is one of the few sports where just completing a race is considered a victory. It allows runners, hikers, climbers, bikers, and paddlers to participate and compete in new and challenging events. Large expedition competition races are over 300 miles and can take up to 10 days to complete, while sprint races can take only an hour or two. Adventure racing not only challenges the body but the mind as well. Competitors must always travel together as a team, putting an emphasis on teamwork rather than individual achievement.
