Racing the Arizona Trail
Start Date: Friday, April 3rd, 2015
Choose your poison: 300 miles / 750 miles
No entry fee, no prizes, absolutely no support
The Arizona Trail Race is an unofficial challenge that takes place every spring on the cross state Arizona Trail. Two distances are available, a 300 mile and a 750 mile. You can track all the racers at Trackleaders and join the discussion on Bikepacking.net!
This year, I’m doing a little incentive give-away for each race. For the AZT each call-in you do gets you a shot at a backpacking gift pack which includes a SOL Escape Bivvy, a Sawyer Mini water filter, and a Petzel headlamp along with stickers and other miscellaneous items that may be thrown in. Just a little something that might make a call or two worth it for someone. This year’s line-up: aaron denberg Adam Marcinkiewicz
