Try Adventure Racing At The Outdoors Show

Have a go at the Nike ACG Challenge and you could be taking a load of free ACG kit home with you and it's free to enter too...

We're planning to bring you a full preview of this year's OS Outdoors Show at the NEC next week, but here's a taster if you fancy pitting yourself against the multiple challenges of indoor adventure racing.

Indoor racing from last year's show, this year though it's open to all, just get over to
www.theoutdoorsshow.co.uk and register

Between Friday 14th March and Sunday 16th March, show-goers will be able to throw themselves into the Nike ACG Challenge and a formidable obstacle course including ramps, zip-wires, walls and scramble nets.

Participants will also get to try out the latest Nike ACG clothing and footwear under race conditions and daily winners will also get to keep the trial kit afterwards - saves on the Nike laundry bill we guess.

There are two heats every day, each comprising 14 teams of two people racing both against each other and the clock. Everyone will get a special ACG pack and the fastest team over the three days of the show will win a grand prize of £250-worth of Nike vouchers.

Places are limited, but entry is absolutely free, so if you want to get stuck in, get yourself over to the OS Outdoors Show site and register now.


More Nike stuff At the show Nike ACG will be showcasing the latest range including the Oregon series footwear and clothing range featuring the latest clothing technology. There will also be a special stand in the canoe hall that will allow people to try the Nike ACG amphibious footwear range. At the canoe stand and speaking at the paddle workshop there will be guest appearances from Nike athletes Anna Hemmings, world K2 Kayak champion (appearing on Friday at 4pm and Saturday at 10.45am) and Brad Ludden (appearing on Saturday at 4.15pm and Sunday at 12pm).
