The Blast is an adventure race that takes place in Oakland County and the surrounding areas. As with any adventure race, youll get an overview of the race here on the Web site. Well tell you what to expect as far as the things you will be doing and what to bring. However, you wont find out the final details until the day of the race at the pre-race meeting.

This is a beginner to intermediate race. Each team should have an understanding of orienteering, the ability to read a United States Geological Survey (USGS) map and navigate using a compass. We will hold a race clinic before the day of the race that will provide basic navigation training and instruction on using a compass.

Race will be held rain or shine!

Course Information:

Depending on the route you take, youll bike 10-16 miles on urban streets and trails and paddle 3-6 miles. Youll have additional route choices in the orienteering sections which cover 4-8 miles on foot. Youll find out more about these activities on the day of the event. Be prepared for some creative thinking and teamwork
