JUNE 17 & 18, 2017: To celebrate our 5th year, Rob and Mike are doing something seriously different. A 24-hour marathon paddling race where solo, tandem, and relay teams race against the clock to complete as many laps of a 12km course as possible in 24 hours: 24 Hours of River X. A fantastic weekend where paddlers from all walks of life can come together in a social atmosphere of friendly competition, paddling as little or as long as they like along a spectator-friendly course. Although new to marathon paddling in North America, this racing format has proven itself to be hugely popular with land-based weekend warriors and competitive athletes alike. Open to SUP, Canoe and Kayak, River X Racing is pleased to bring this new race to the water. Details will be formally announced on November 19th, 2016. Stay tune!
