Spring Bloom Adventure Race

About the Event

Saturday, April 25th - 15-Hour Race & 4-Hour Races

Make a team or go solo and have a blast during our annual Spring Bloom Adventure Race in and around beautiful Fredericksburg, VA. If you love being outdoors: paddling, hiking and/or biking trails, getting off the sidewalks, then this is the event for you. Navigate the park just as the flowers and trees are blossoming, this year we will have both a "morning to midnight" 15-hour race on Saturday, and then also a more beginner friendly 4-hour race on Sunday. So whether you are an adventure racing newcomer or looking for a full day of outdoor adventure we've got you covered.
