Race Facts:
Event Dates: January 31 - February 7, 2009
Race Dates: February 1 - February 6, 2009
Length of Race: 6 Days (20km - 60km per stage)
Distance: 225-250 Kilometers
Location: The course is set along Costa Rica’s tropical Pacific coastline but weaves at times into the Talamancas, a coastal mountain range in the Southwest corner of the country. You’ll finish near the border of Panama in a serene fishing village that until recently was only accessible by boat.
Terrain: Jungle and rainforest trails, mountain trail and single track across ridgelines, highlands and coastal ranges; beaches, rocky outcroppings and reefs, river and estuary crossings, and ends in Corcovado National Park, one of the premier rainforest experiences in the world as well as a Unesco World Heritage site. Much, much more. It really defies description!
- Things are starting to roll and a few of the bigger pieces have fallen into place. The biggest being a charitable partnership with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Victoria!
