July is the vacation month for many families in the United States. We will be at the lake boating, swimming, or paddling. We will be on the trail walking, running, biking, or trekking. We will be in the mountains climbing, hiking, bike pushing, or bush-whacking. We will be drenched in sweat or soaked from the rain. We will be slathered with sunscreen and bug spray. This is what summer is all about. My July vacation will be in New Hampshire at the Untamed New England Expedition Race, where I will likely experiencing all the above.
For the month of July there are 8 races in the United States and 1 in Canada. You will find races in Ontario, Wisconsin, Florida, Michigan, Kentucky, Wyoming, New Hampshire, Delaware, and Colorado. The East still dominates the adventure race scene, but the West is revving up with more races to come at the end of the summer. As I seem to say a lot, it is great to see all these races around the United States bringing new and old racers to beautiful areas with the goal of challenging their bodies and their minds through well organized adventure races.
Have a great adventure racing summer!
