Submitted By: Mariangela Silvestre
Recently voted the "Best Adventure Race in Western Canada" by Get Out There Magazine for the second year in a row, the MOMAR enters its 12th anniversary season with an impressive 31 race history.
The MOMAR is an incredible weekend experience that will test one's mental and physical limits. PArticipants will navigate your way through a series of checkpoints on either the 30km Sport Course or on the 50km Enduro Course.
The 2011 series includes a brand new venue on the mainland and a return to the classic on Vancouver Island. In partnership with Tourism Burnaby, the MOMAR starts its season on the slopes of Burnaby Mountain on May 28th. And the final event returns to the historic mining town of Cumberland on September 25th. Both races will require teams to kayak, mountain bike, trail run, orienteer, and trek their way through a challenging course.
From the most novice of racers to the most seasoned of athletes, the adventure races will test all of one's faculties and prove to be the participant's biggest endurance accomplishments of the year.
Schedule for the race on the 28th as follows:
Enduro 50km Course - 9:00am
Sport 30km Course - 10:30am
