Title: Belfast Rat Race (9 aug 09)
Post by: eventadmin on May 01, 2009
The Rat Race is an urban adventure challenge event that turns cities into high-adrenaline adventure playgrounds for participants of all abilities. Teams of three and pairs will hike, bike, abseil, climb, kayak and navigate their way around the streets, structures, waterways and urban landscapes of the country’s coolest cities.

Anyone can enter. You can choose to test the water with the three-hour Mean Streets event on Saturday evening, lasting 3 hours, covering up to 10km on foot and designed for serious fun and games. Hunt out adventure challenges set around the city centre which range from the physical to the funny to the downright surreal! Those looking to get adventurous on two wheels can test their mettle against Sunday’s bike based Nine2Five challenge, featuring biking, kayaking, abseiling and more. Or for those who want to wear their heart on their sleeve, opt in for a whole weekend of adventure racing with the Rat Race Weekender – attempting both the Mean Streets on Saturday night and coming back for more on the Sunday with the Nine2Five.

The Rat Race course is kept a closely guarded secret until a few hours before the race and throughout your adventure you should expect the unexpected as we take you into, over, under and through our host cities, Rat Race style! One minute you could be running through bustling shopping streets in search of a checkpoint; the next you could be trying your hand at parkour, punching a boxing champ or pole dancing your way to the points. The Rat Race is totally unique in its format, scope of activities and sense of discovery and adventure. Join the Rat Race. Beat the Rat Race!
