The G-Rant : Grant's Rants on Adventure Racing

“Without adventure, civilization is in full decay.” - Alfred North Whitehead

Virginia Beach AdventureFest Opens for Business!

The Virginia Beach AdventureFest website now offers online registration for several of the main events.  Click on the "Register For Events" link and you're on your way! 

This is the first time HRAdventure is doing registration per person instead of per team for our adventure race; it should help us keep our costs better under control and makes a lot of sense since the Bear of the Beach trail run and the VB Metr-O Orienteering Race are all priced per individual.
We've got a spiffy logo for the AdventureFest, and soon we'll have the whole site redone in matching colours and style!

We're close to finalizing details on a few additional events for the weekend, so we'll be expanding the schedule and registration as we nail down the final details.  The website will be getting a lot more content in the next month or so.  For example, we'll explain how we're crowning a male and female champion for the entire weekend, the "King and Queen Kraken" -- note the octopus reference -- the guy and gal who do the best on a team in the adventure race, as a solo runner at the trail run, and on a team or as a solo at the urban orienteering event will be crowned as the Krakens for 2006; I expect we'll do some fun prizes for this honour as well as all the prestige.

All in all, things are shaping up nicely for this coming November . . . now check out the site, get registered, and get training!

Man, tough crowd.  We like the King/Queen Kraken idea and we know they're technically a squid . . . but cut us some slack on the logo.  

Yah, I'm a Queen's English kind of guy -- grey vs gray, colour vs color.  I'm just practicing for when Jill takes a faculty job in New Zealand!
