Nantucket Sleigh Ride - SLEDS WILL BE PROVIDED

The signature event of the Richmond Park Winter Rush. The course will end with a fast sled ride down the famous Richmond Park sledding hill. A sure crowd favorite!

 

Field of Snow Angels
A fun element to create great photo opportunites! Stop, drop and give me five snow angels and be on your way. A true favorite for the friends and family division!

 

Over the River and Through the Woods

A single track run through the woods of Richmond Park which will now lead a path to Mt. Everest.

 

Mt. Everest

Mt. Everest, one of the most challenging course elements to date, is a 118 ft. elevation gain over 1/10 of a mile. Participants are expected to declare victory over the mountain by placing a flag at the peak. 

 

The Wall

uh-oh rabbit...the first rule of Winter Rush is dodge. Too bad you will be climbing. The Wall.

 

The Web:

Try not to panic when rabbits turn to spiders when weaving through "The Web"

 

The Limbo:

Hop, hop, hop…low, low, low…How low can you go before you start crawling through the snow?

 

Target Practice:

Be sure to dodge any mis-fired items because everyone will be taking, Target Practice.
