We are putting on the first CheNarr adventure race and rogaine. Both adventure races and rogaines are navigation-based races. Racers will be given a map, will need a compass, and will be attempting to find as many checkpoints as possible. The CheNarr Adventure Race is a 12-hr event that includes mountain or gravel biking, kayaking and trekking to find checkpoints in the Cheatham Wildlife Management Area and in Narrows of the Harpeth State Park. Traditionally in an AR, racers compete in co-ed teams of three or four racers that travel together along the entire course from point to point. For the CheNarr, two person teams, same gender teams and solo racers are also acceptable. We put this race on to start bringing AR and Rogaine races to the Nashville area. They are a ton of fun. So lets get started building this new type of endurance race to our community!

The CheNarr rogaine is a shorter, 6-hr trekking event in the Cheatham. The rogaine will also be a team-based event, but solos will be welcome just like the AR.

For both races, most checkpoints (CPs) are optional. Essentially, whoever makes it back to the start having visited the most checkpoints wins. If there is a tie, finishing time is used as a tiebreaker. There are penalties for being late.
