ARCHIVED RACE: Met Con Blue Mountain Adventure race @ Blue Mountain Resorts, The Blue Mountains, Ontario, Canada on 08 September 2012

Another obstacle adventure race…Yea right eh !!! This one is 100% Certified Canadian. What does that mean?
We live in igloos and eat snow for breakfast. We invented poutine, and top it with back bacon; we use beer in our cereal,…Epic Meal..puleease!!
We can make a fire by snapping our fingers.
Only 10% of the country has hydro and running water.
Our terrain is the most inhospitable in the world. Hell, this course will offer ass-kickery anytime of the year. Oh did we mention the course,…its 5km..with 15 hard-core obstacles, 66 % uphill !!!
What kind of mentality does this breed??
We’ll tell you what we are “aboot”..
We are the toughest nation on the planet! Welcome to the Met Con Blue Nation!
