Star Course

[Jason__G]

I have a hard time with getting motivated for hiking sometimes. A lot of the hunt/hike events seem to focus on things like racing up a short, steep hill, or combine things like long archery shots that just don't excite me. I was looking for some hiking events to motivate me and found the Star Course(s). No obstacles, no shooting, just a long hike, carrying weight, where you can pick your own course, but have to hit all the way-points. Three distance options and you have to do it with at least one team-mate and up to 5 per team.
I figured that some other Roksliders may enjoy this kind of hunt/hike training. Myself and few other guys will be at the Portland, OR event doing the 50.
Oh, and yes, you can use whatever pack you want. I asked.

That sounds like fun, they have adventure races here that I wish I had more time for. Usually lonnnggg courses with orienteering and things included.
