RAID THE RIB ADVENTURE RUN
APRIL 13, 2025
NIAGARA REGION
The Niagara Escarpment (aka the Giant's Rib) was a formidable physical barrier to early explorers in Ontario. Steep cliffs, rocky ground, and large creeks also made navigation difficult for these adventurers. The Raid the Rib Adventure Run takes place on the Niagara Escarpment so participants can expect lots of technical running and some interesting navigational challenges.
START LOCATION (TBC)

In addition to the 'backbone' there will many many, harder 'Rib' CPs. You can visit these CPs at any point in the course, each checkpoint is worth differing amount of points based on how difficult it is to locate.
