Squiggy Classic/Dash/Junior Adventure Races
As part of the Squiggy Classic Weekend, spend a few hours running beautiful trails, hiking through pine forests and cypress swamps, riding single-track bike trails and dirt roads, canoeing the Hillsborough River, navigating with map and compass, and other special challenges! get ready for one of three races – pick the course that is best for you and your family!
The Squiggy Classic offers 4 - 6 hours of challenges unique to the race location: both the “favorite trails†of the park, as well as places seldom visited! Soloists and teams of two (co-ed or all M/F) can expect great challenges and great fun! Canoes, paddles, PFDs are provided for teams, but personal canoes or kayaks are allowed. Soloists must provide their own boats, paddle, and PFD. The course will be partially marked, but for other sections, you must navigate with map and compass. The fun starts at 8 am with first teams expected to cross the finish line around 12-1 pm and awards ceremony at 2 pm. Or try the “Squiggy Dash†– a shorter version of the Squiggy Classic, perfect for newcomers, fun-lovers, or families!
The Squiggy Dash starts at 10 am and covers an abbreviated course with about 30-45 minutes each of biking, running, paddling, challenges, and adventure (about 2-3 hours total). Back by Popular Demand!
The Squiggy Junior Kids Race is a chance for the whole family to get involved! Younger racers (under 15 years old) can participate in a 20-30 mini-adventure race of their own, and kick-off the day’s adventure with the Classic and Dash racers cheering them on! The Squiggy Junior will be run before the “Dash†race starts so they can encourage the kids!
