Untamed Virginia Adventure Race Location


30-Hour Course
The race check-in will take place in downtown Richmond, VA. The Richmond Crowne Plaza is the host hotel (stay tuned for reservation information and details regarding discounts for Untamed racers!). Richmond is in central VA, along I-95. For reference, Richmond is approximately 90 miles from Virginia Beach, 100 miles from Washington DC, 200 miles from Philadelphia, 240 miles from Charlotte, and 240 miles from Pittsburgh.

The race will take place over a secret course. Teams will learn the starting location of the race and take possession of their maps and race instructions once they complete the team check-in procedure on Friday Sept 12th; the race instructions will communicate the secret course details.

All we're saying at this point is that the 30-hour race course will be 100+ miles and might run North, South, East, or West of Richmond (and any combination of those!).


4-Hour Course
Racers in the 4-hour event will learn the race start location the week prior to the event (this ensures it's a surprise and racers can't practice on the race course). 4-hour course racers are welcome to come out on Friday evening, Sept 12th, to check out the 30-hour race prologue and complete check-in . . . but this is optional.

The 4-hour race will require teams arrive at the race location at 8 AM on Sunday, September 14th.

All we're saying at this point is that the 4-hour race course will be a fun 15+ miles; the course will share portions of the 30-hour race course, including the race finish line.
