Expectation builds for the upcoming Anaconda Adventure Race, Augusta
The 2009 Anaconda Adventure Race in Augusta sold out more than two and a half weeks before the event with a field limit of 600 entries in yet another coup for adventure racing in Western Australia.
The event that created the Worlds Biggest Adventure Race in 2008 has done it again and will turn on a mammoth show in Augusta this Sunday on November 8th, 2009. We are thrilled that the event has proved
so popular once again,” said Event Manager, Sam Maffett. “Obviously last year’s event at Dunsborough was very popular and was sold out with a field of 554 entries and to reach a full field of 600 at a new
race location is just terrific,” he added. . ... {Click here for full story.}

Competitors, dust off your hear and take on the Lorne Anaconda Adventure Race
Last Sunday saw the first and final formal Lorne familiarization day take place in perfect conditions. Swimmers, paddlers, runners and riders took on the Lorne course which remains largely unchanged from the successful
format of the 2008 race. The Keen run has been slightly modified, with Race Director, John Jacoby becoming very soft in his old age and actually removing one of the technical hill climbs and traverses from the run course
and shortening the distance by 1km. That wouldn’t have happened 4 years ago! . ... {Click here for full story.}
