2010 CSU-Pueblo X Challenge:

  • The CSU-Pueblo X Challenge Campus to Reservoir Adventure Race consists of completion of several low ropes course challenge events at CSU-Pueblo, followed by mountain biking through the Pueblo Greenway trail system, to Ducky boats course in the Arkansas river rapids, to run orienteering in the Pueblo City Park, more cycling along the greenway to the State Park, and culminating with open water kayaking in the Pueblo Reservoir and a short run to the finish in the Pueblo State Park.
  • The race highlights much of the natural beauty and local recreational highlights in Pueblo and the surrounding area.
  • The ropes course events are completed first to determine a starting position and then the rest of the events are completed in a continuous race.
  • The ropes course events are scored based on quality factors and converted to time rather than simply being timed.

     

  • Course Information:

    This event is an adventure race in an urban setting. It occurs in two stages. Initially all competitors participate in eight ropes course events rotating through each in turn. Each team is given 3 minutes to make attempts to complete each ropes course event challenge. Each is scored by quality factors and then converted to a time, as described below. The individual times from all eight ropes course challenge events are then added together to establish the start time for the second stage.

    The second stage consists of a mountain bike segment, ducky boat (inflatable kayak) run, second mountain bike segment, run orienteering segment, third mountain bike segment, open water kayak segment, and a short closing run done in continuous fashion. Teams start this stage based on their ropes course event cumulative time. For example, if a team accumulates 7:30 on all the ropes course events then their start time occurs at 7:30, from when the race clock is started. In this way, all teams are racing on an equal basis during the continuous second stage of the event. The order of finish is established based on the order in which individuals and teams cross the finish line.
