Summer Sizzle Adventure Race - Sunday 2026

The race.

The Summer Sizzle Adventure Race on Sunday, June 14, 2026, is a 5-hour adventure race held in and around Lake Anna State Park near Spotsylvania Courthouse, Virginia. Participants navigate marked checkpoints using map and compass across multiple modes: hiking, biking, and paddling. Teams of 1 to 4 people or family groups compete to find as many checkpoints as possible within the time limit, with fastest time breaking ties. Registration includes kayak, paddle, and lifejacket rental; a race shirt (if registered by April 1); topographic maps; race photos; and a post-race meal. Custom awards go to the top three finishers in each division: solo (male and female), 2-person, 3-person, and 4-person teams, plus a family division. The event is USARA-sanctioned and scores points toward Virginia State Parks Adventure Series rankings.
