Race The Sun Lake District Off-Road

Take on an incredible team challenge journeying through majestic mountains of the beautiful Lake District National Park in this new event featuring an off-road riding section.
Push your limits to complete the course of off-road riding, hiking and canoeing between dawn and dusk, racing the sun on this triathlon-style adventure charity fundraising challenge.
Challenge Day! You will wake early for a pre-challenge breakfast before teams of four begin the adventure with the off-road riding section, which starts flat, following the lakeshore, before some punchy, technical climbs, offering spectacular views.
Next up is the steep, thigh-bursting trek to the summit of the Old Man of Coniston, a classic Lake District mountain looming over the surrounding countryside at 803 metres above sea level, and back again.
The final section puts your teamwork to the test on a circular canoe loop on Coniston Water (no canoe experience or equipment necessary) before you finish this incredible challenge and celebrate your achievements with your medal, a drink on us, and a well-deserved bite to eat!
The time it takes to complete the challenge is entirely dependent upon the ability level of your team, but it typically takes anywhere between 6 - 12 hours to complete.
Race the Sun serves up enough adventure to challenge those looking to lay down a fast time, as well as those who just want a great, fun day to reconnect with people after a year like no other!
NB: All distances are subject to weather conditions on the day
