The Rogue
Liam St Pierre - Event Organiser / 19.01.2010
The Rogue Adventuregaine is set for the long weekend of April 24th - 25th in a brand new location within Brisbane Forest Park, just over an hour outside of the CBD. Mixed, female and male teams of 2 will have up to 24 hours to collect as many checkpoints as they can over multiple legs of the core disciplines of trekking, mountain biking and kayaking.As all checkpoints on the course are completely optional, the Rogue should be achievable by all level of athlete. This is not to say that the course, terrain and route choice options will not be challenging, however teams new to adventure racing should be to make it through the minimum course in 24 hours with a bit of preparation, whilst more experienced teams will be pushed to their limit as they attempt to sweep the course. Timing of the event will also serve as an excellent training hit out for teams preparing for XPD. The multi-stage rogaine format (with some linear elements) allows for a brilliant variety in the course, with strategy and keen navigation playing as significant a role as outright fitness.
