USARA National Championship

On my way to Great Meadows campground in McCreary County where I will be joining the Sheltowee Trace I had to stop by Cumberland Falls State Resort Park. The main purpose behind my stop at the park was to drop off food to pick up in a few days, but luckily it coincided with the final day of the U.S. Adventure Racing Association National Championship competition.
Teams of three raced over twenty four hours on foot, bycicle and canoe using only topographical maps and compasses to find their way to the finish line at the duPont Lodge.
It was a truly beautiful weekend in Southeastern Kentucky for an adventure or a race or both and proves that there is plenty to do on fall Saturdays even when UK and U of L are both playing out of town.
