The Wildfire Raid is now run and done, and for an inaugural edition of the race, it was a massive success. Adopting the now familiar Raid multisport rogaine format with a few little twists, the 3 and 6 hour time options were perfect for new comers to the sport whilst still challenging some of Queensland’s fastest adventure racing teams. The course took in some fantastic single track riding in the […]
As the winter solstice looms and we’ve hit the prime time for racing in Queensland, let’s have a quick wrap up of all the action from the Raid events. Win With The Wildfire Raid In what I predict to be the new gold standard in sprint adventure racing, the Wildfire Raid is set to kick off on Saturday 28 July. Reports back from the course setters suggest a pretty special […]
Edited Note: Distances have been updated in November 2018 subsequent to further course vetting. With entries due to open for the Raid 100 shortly, this is a quick little post to give you a clearer idea of what you are buying in to.

Raid Adventures will be hosting Australia’s first ever expedition length, rogaine format adventure race. The Rogue 24 hour event that the Raid 100 is based on has a tradition of rapidly selling out. As such, we have had to implement an entry procedure in the past that ensures entries are obtained in a fair and equitable manner. We are entering uncharted territory with the Raid 100, however, I will be […]
Well, another Rogue Raid race is run and done. The ninth edition saw the largest field to ever tackle a 24 hour adventure race in Australia and, combined with the 6 hour competitors, saw almost 280 racers hit the Lake Samsonvale area running, kayaking and mountain biking to collect as many check points as possible before the clocked ticked over to time’s up. Let’s begin a recap of the race […]
So time again for another Adventure1 race predictions blog, and onto some more familiar ground for me: the Rogue Raid. With 184 competitors surviving to make the 24 hour start line (and we all know making the start line is the hardest part of any adventure race) and another 90 racers in the 6 hour event, this will be one of the largest 24 hour adventure races ever held in […]

A quick wrap up on the first ever Colts Raid and Scatter Raid races. In a first for this event format, teams were set with the challenge of picking up as many check points as possible over 3 hours of racing mountain bikes, kayaks, running and a surprise swimming leg. With 37 check points spread over 7 legs, strategy was always going to play a massive role in the final […]
