Race Overview:

Have you heard of aquablazing?  Aquablazing is when Appalachian Trail thru-hikers kayak or canoe a portion of the trail.  Now you can have the chance to experience an aquablaze along the Shenandoah River with a backdrop of skyline drive!​

REV3Endurance is pleased to bring back the Shenandoah River Aquablaze.  This is a fun race that combines running and watercraft as part of your race route (kayaking for soloist/canoeing for 2 person teams). Participants will travel on foot (running or walking) 3 or 14 miles via well marked trail at Shenandoah River State Park. The estimated time to finish is 3-5 hours. We have a great course for you to run, paddle, and navigate your way around in an awesome area along the Shenandoah River and Andy Guest State Park. We’ll host the race out at Downriver Canoe Company in Bentonville, VA.  Parking will be walking distance from the race the event starting line.
