The High Rock Challenge

Staten Island, NY
28 April 2001

The High Rock 10K Adventure Challenge is a 10 kilometer endurance adventure run in the Greenbelt Trail System in Staten Island, New York. One hundred teams consisting of 2 members must run while staying together at all times. Teams will compete in 5 mystery events which are located throughout the course. The mystery events as well as the race course will remain a secret until the start of the race. No special gear is necessary to compete. Mystery events are designed to challenge teamwork, not physical strength.

This event benefits a fund for the children of fallen N.Y.P.D. Officer John Kelly (Died in the line of duty July 12,2000) with an additional memorial in honor of U.S. Marine Sergeant Scott J. Payton (Persian Gulf Veteran, died on active duty May 2, 1999).

What are the mystery events?

Did you really think we were going to tell you? The mystery events will challenge each teams problem solving ability, adaptability and physical strength. The most important factor in overcoming each challenge will be teamwork.
