Ozark Greenways Adventure Race

All teams are in and the 2013 Ozark Greenways Adventure Race was a success! Thanks to the racers, volunteers and sponsors who make the race possible!

The 14th Annual Ozark Greenways Adventure Race (OGAR) is a multisport endurance adventure race which features running, trekking, mountain biking, orienteering and paddling. All distances and the race itinerary are kept secret until race morning.

The Race Planning Committee is working very hard to make this year's OGAR one of the best OGAR's to date! Here are a few of the important things to help you get started planning to join in and have a great time in this year's race.

Location
Bart and Rita have again volunteered to allow their Frisco Trail Mini Storage & Bike Depot be the Headquarters for this years race. Last year was our first year there and the accommodations were just outstanding for racers and organizers as well!

Team Categories
Entry categories are Duo and Quad teams of any gender mix and a choice of two different courses to participate on; a 'Long' course for experienced racers and a 'Short' course designed for the beginning or first time racer.

Fees
Great News, Fees are remaining the same low prices as last year: $115 per entrant on Long course, $60 per person for short course. Late registrations will be slightly more. See the details page for time lines and costs.

Registration
Registrations will be made using the GetMeRegistered site we used last year. Be sure to read the details page first and then use the link on the sidebar to take you directly to the 2013 Registration process.

Lodging
