Try our 6-12 hour races!  These races will provide a challenge to newbies and veterans alike who may be taking the sport of adventure racing a bit more seriously.  Designed for finishing times of 6 to 12 hours, these serve as a perfect middle ground to our sprints and 24 hour races and cater to those athletes with some adventure racing endurance and experience. 

Showcased against the dramatic backdrop of the California Coast and the intensity of the Pacific Ocean, the Ocean Blue Adventure Race is staged near the communities of Half Moon Bay and El Granada in the Pillar Point Harbor area.  Home of the infamous Mavericks surf break which boasts the toughest surf contest in the world, kayaking the Pacific in this area is exhilarating.  But fear not, the giant waves of Mavericks only come out of hiding in the winter months.  You’ll have the experience of paddling with Maverick’s little sisters- calmer, gentler, summer waves.  Biking and running amongst manzanita and eucalyptus trees, sandy beaches and bluff tops with outstanding ocean views, this is truly the most beautiful adventure racing experience. 

Pack your flip flops and board shorts.  Bring a beach blanket if you like.  Half Moon Bay, a quaint California Beach community, offers a unique and challenging coastal adventure for all that is just 30 minutes south of San Francisco.
