See the link for details but generally speaking this is a true run and shoot biathlon. You don’t have to be extremely fit or a seasoned marksman for this to be fun and for $35 it is a great value!
Race highlights: You will NOT be running with firearms, we have many well-trained staff on hand to run, organize and keep this event safe!
There will be 4 running/walking loops of 1.25K (3/4 mile) each, for a total of 5K. It will be the same loop each time. These loops will be on unimproved trails through hilly woods and fields. There may be some natural obstacles such as logs or ditches, but there will be no climbing or crawling. You may either run or walk. In between each running/walking loop is a shooting stage. The reactive targets, which are plain black bullseyes, will be in three rows of five targets in each row. Five shots will be taken in each of the three positions, one shot per target. You either hit it, or miss it (“Hits Count!”). The reactive target disks turn from black to white to indicate a hit. After shooting each stage, and clearing/safing/grounding his/her rifle, the competitor does a separate approximately 125 meter penalty loop for each miss before going back out on the 1.25K loop.
.22LR RIFLES ONLY!
