Marjon

Sunday 3rd October 2010

Do you have what it takes to complete the Plymouth M.A.D.?

Plymouth Marjon Adventure Day (M.A.D.) is Plymouth's only urban adventure challenge where teams or individuals race in a multi-sport test of navigation, endurance and skills on a course that is only revealed hours before the event begins.

Do you enjoy cycling, orienteering, running, abseiling, wall climbing, or rowing?  Then Plymouth M.A.D. is for you.  You get to compete combining these types of activities all in one day!

Plymouth M.A.D. is designed for a variety of competitors with different fitness levels and abilities.  For those new to Adventure Racing, we offer a short route to introduce you to this exciting sporting activity. For the experienced Adventure Race enthusiasts, we offer a long route which will test your fitness and endurance. The long route will take you away from Plymouth to the fringes of Dartmoor, down to the sea and back to the race headquarters at UCP Marjon. The route will take in a variety of challenges over a range of terrain.

Regardless of the route you take (short or long), the course will take advantage of the green space and exquisite natural surroundings of the City, and will test your fitness and levels of endurance.

Prizes are available for the winners of each category, although the focus of the day is for you to have fun and enjoy the beautiful outdoors that Plymouth has to offer.

In addition all entrants will be entitled to a FREE full bike service (worth £35) complements of Cogs-Bikes in Plymouth.
