The Paddle Bike Run Championship involves the completion of three continuous and sequential disciplines: paddling, mountain biking, and trail running. Racers will start at the Green River Ranch, paddle 1 mile downstream to the confluence of Cove Creek and turn around to attain back to The Ranch. From there, they will jump on their bicycles and peddle the grueling 8-9 mile course, climbing 1600 vertical feet to complete the loop. The last stage of the race is the trail run that follows the same loop as the bike stage. There will be only one champion. This event requires some paddling skills combined with technical cross-country mountain biking skills and having the endurance to finish with a challenging trail run. This event is entirely self-support with one aid station on the trail and one at the transition area.
