Next Raid in the DontGetLost Adventure Running series is the Salomon Giant's Rib Raid on May 4th. A portion of this race will take place on a new map never used before and a revision of an area last used in the late 1970's.
Earlier this week Get Out There Magazine (Readers' Choice Awards) voted the Snowshoe Raid and the Raid the Hammer as top snowshoe race and top orienteering race in Canada, respectively.
