Training gives us an outlet for suppressed energies created by stress and thus tones the spirit just as exercise conditions the body

2018 SEVENTY48 Race

Written by Jason Learned on . Posted in Training & Events

SEVENTY48: 70 Miles in 48 Hours. Rules are simple: no motors, no support, and no wind. That’s right. HUMAN POWER ONLY. Pedal, paddle, or row. We don’t care. It’s up to you. (And this is a boat race. Leave your 10 speed-towing-a-canoe idea at home.) 

 Race Start: June 11, 2018

  • Application deadline: April 15, 2018
  • Registration deadline: April 30, 2018
  • Gun goes off at 5:30 PM, and teams have 30 minutes to cross the start line. (And PM is not a typo.  We know what it means and so do you.)

Where: First find Tacoma, Washington. The race starts at the head of Tacoma’s Thea Foss Waterway near the Museum of Glass. Next find Port Townsend. That’s where you hope to end. Only two checkpoints are required: A boat and a bridge. Here’s the route map.
