The 36-Hour course will be very challenging, and the Berryman Adventure is located in an area with very steep and rugged terrain. If you have any doubts about completing the long course, please consider registering for the 12-Hour course. The 36-Hour course is once again going to be extremely difficult, and teams MUST train hard for this race and come well prepared! With that said, all racers will enjoy racing in deep backwoods forests and will be on miles of great singletrack! You can expect to paddle some of the best rivers in the country, which are nationally protected. Racers will also be rewarded with beautiful, scenic views of deep valleys and spring-fed rivers from the tops of huge bluffs in the heart of the Ozark Mountains. Expected winning time will be around 24 hours plus, and racers should come prepared to complete 40-60 miles of mountain biking (on gravel roads, jeep roads and single track), 25-40 miles of running, trekking and bushwhacking and 15-30 miles of paddling on some of the best spring-fed rivers in the country! The entire course will be navigation based, and teams should be extremely proficient with using a map and compass in order to complete the course.
