BASIC EVENT DETAILS:
The Siskiyou Challenge will take place on Saturday, April 28, 2018, starting at ScienceWorks Hands-On Museum. It is a fundraiser for Rogue Valley Farm to School, a local nonprofit that educates children about our food system through hands-on farm and garden programs.
The Siskiyou Challenge now features six legs! The Challenge begins and ends at ScienceWorks Hands-On Museum. Each leg can be as challenging as you want to make it as a racer; or if you’re a recreational team, it can be very scenic and fun! The Siskiyou Challenge welcomes solo racers or duo teams (2) or larger teams of 3 – 6 athletes. Duos and teams may divide the legs any way they choose. A team of both males and females is considered “mixed” if there is one woman on a team of 2-3 racers or two women on a 4-6 racer team.
Leg 1: 13K Cycle – Directs the racers from the start line to the first transistion area, Picnic B at Emigrant Lake.
Leg 2: 3K Kayak – Just under 2 miles in a flat water kayak or on a paddleboard.
Leg 3: 30K Cycle – Almost 19 miles of cycling on scenic rural roads through the valley’s orchards from Emigrant Lake to Lithia Park’s Swimming Reservoir.
Leg 4: 6K Run – Hill climbers delight, a run up into the hills above Lithia Park.
Leg 5: 13K Mt Bike – A beautiful ride up Ashland Loop Road, single track on the way down through a few of Ashland’s best-known trails.
Leg 6: 6K Run – Leave Lithia Park to run the streets above Ashland, coming down to the bike path with a finish off on Walker Avenue to ScienceWorks for a party at the finish line.
All racers expected at the PRE-RACE MEETING at 7:30 at ScienceWorks.
The 6-leg relay promises to be southern Oregon’s premier multi-sport relay race. We hope you will want to be part of it as a racer, a volunteer or a spectator!
