Adventure

This new addition to Team Priority Health feature a new breed of athletes.  These athletes test their survival skills in a number of ways whether it’s shredding through a tight single track on a mountain bike or orienteering and hiking through a dense forest.

Adventure racers may find themselves ripping down rapids in a canoe and then rappelling off a 100ft. rock face. The races can range from a few hours to several days and often cover 100 miles or more!

The goal of the competition is to be the first team to get all members across the finish line together. Each team must use strategy to determine the best route, equipment, food, and pace to win.

Adventure racing involves any combination of the following sports in succession:

  • Trekking or Trial Running
  • Mountain/Road biking
  • Kayaking or Canoeing
  • White water rafting
  • Swimming
  • Fixed Ropes
  • Navigation and Orienteering
  • Equestrian

Our adventure team is based out of the Detroit Area and is run by Jeff Watters.
