Situation

O.B.U.A. BLUE RIDGE takes place in the Asheville, with more focus on fun, and less on miles.

Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina, Asheville is perhaps best known as the location of George Vanderbilt's Biltmore Estate and the home of major American novelist, Thomas Wolfe. It’s also very well known for its Craft Beer culture, but you’ll find that out yourself.

Mission

Two missions:

  1. Complete as many checkpoints as possible in the time allocated.
  2. Complete as many challenges as possible in the time allocated.

Execution

The start and finish location will be announced in the coming weeks. Your Team Captain will be issued with a list of checkpoints that may include bars, historic locations, and famous landmarks! There will also be a list of additional challenges specific to this location and event. It's up to your team to decide how to attack the challenge.

This event is about having fun, getting outside, working together, and fitness...a little bit. Expect the Unexpected.
