Final 2014 race results SPORT, EXPERT !


Calleva Adventure Race 2014—Not your ordinary adventure race!

The sixth edition was an incredible hit and sold out well before the deadline! Don't miss out on the most exciting race in the Washington, DC metro area.

For 2014 we will continue to have two categories: EXPERT for advanced racers and SPORT for strong athletes with limited experience in adventure racing. Racers in both categories will have up to 10 hours to complete the course, but the Expert category will include more technical disciplines that require special skills.

Brand new for this year, we’re excited to announce that the Calleva 2014 Adventure Race will be a USARA Regional Qualifier for the 2014 USARA National Championship being held this year at Deep Creek Lake! 3/4-person coed-teams in our Expert Category can qualify and compete for the top prize, a $400 sponsorship toward the National Championships.

    No river swim for the expert course this year

    Attention EXPERT category teams.

    The park service started a long awaited construction project on one of the
    planned race transition areas. The construction will be continued beyond
    August 9th and will interfere with the river swim section of the race. We
    are canceling the river swim discipline for this year and hope to have it
    back in 2010. Thanks to the bailout money, our parks will be better. Sorry
    for the inconvenience. See you in August.

    P.S. The EXPERT gear list is updated.

    The Best Place for Paddling Training.


    Need more paddling practice before the race? Or are the mountain bike trails closed because of all the heavy rain? Or are you just looking for a fun day on the water? Spend a weekend at Jack's Boathouse in Georgetown. You can test out a variety of boats and paddles often used in real adventure races: including canoes, single kayaks, or tandem kayaks. Training conditions like white water, river, and open water, are all right there. And while paddling you can enjoy the views of many Washington, DC memorials.
