Racers prepare for Urban Adventure Games

Posted:

You may have lived in South Bend your whole life, but do you really know the ins and outs of the community?

Racers are taking on the city Saturday morning in the Urban Adventure Games.

In the yearly games, thrill seekers take on the best of what South Bend has to offer.

They go from checkpoint to checkpoint, completing a task before being allowed to move on towards the finish.

The staples?

Rafting down the east race, hitting the farmers market, and ziplining across the St. Joseph River.

The Urban Adventure games are expecting about 420 teams Saturday, that's a hundred more than last year.

The race director says checkpoints are going to be very different this year.


"You gotta keep it fresh. So we've really changed up what the challenges are and most of the locations this year," says race director, Lynn Kackmarik.

The race gets underway Saturday morning at 8 a.m.
