British Adventure Race Championships Nears Climax

By Jon / SleepMonsters

Just a reminder that the first ever British Adventure Racing Championshipsis building to a climax.

So far competitors have orienteered through the William Clough Ellis village used as the set for cult TV series The Prisoner, climbed Cadair Idris, dragged kayaks up a dry river bed (eh? Ed) and ridden one of the UK's most technical mountain bike trails at night.

Last night they were set to tackle a night abseil and a long kayaking stage through the infamous rocks and tidal races of the Menai Strait before running in for the grand finale at Caernarfon Castle today.

At the time of writing, Team Lythgoe were still holding the lead, with Team Wales less than an hour behind after three days of racing.

That's as much as we know, but for live reports, photos, background and more, check out specialist adventure racing site SleepMonsters.
