Background:
This is a concept race mixing disciplines from running, relays, adventure racing, and orienteering. No navigation experience is required. Derived from Latin: to chase or hunt.
The Setup:
Teams of 2 to 4 persons are given course maps with trails and ideal paths for 4 different legs. There is NO predefined course ONLY ideal paths. Teams may follow the ideal path or decide on their OWN path. Only ONE team member is on the course at any given time. Each racer must complete all FOUR legs. Each legs consist of 3-5 checkpoints that must be visited during a runner's attempt at a leg. Legs start and end at a centralized transition area (TA). Checkpoints are clearly visible next to the trail or out in the opening so proficient navigation skills are not required. Each leg varies in distance (2-5K) and difficulty (terrain). Each team member should expect to cover 15K+. Teams pick their starting leg and runner. While one team member is on course, other team members are hanging out near race HQ recovering and planning the next leg. Team dynamics and communication comes into play here as teams change their strategy and route selection to stay on top.
