Too Cool Racing brings their beginner friendly Spring Sprints back for another exciting season in 2009!  In our continual committment to keep races fresh and exciting Too Cool will bring their sprints to Lake Bryan and Lake Georgetown, our two newest venues as well as back to our favorite Inks Lake State Park.
We are incredibly excited to offer a 'sport' class at the Lake Georgetown Sprint.  'Sport' class racers will race alongside our adventure sprint racers.  The 'sport' class will offer racers a marked course but will have standard features of an adventure race; checkpoints and passports, mystery events, thinking on the run... 'Sport' racers will set up next to and begin the race with all other racers.  This is a great opportunity for new adventure racers that want to get their feet wet without the map and compass work.

With thousands of dollars in awards and prizes, free nav clinics before each event, signature Too Cool hospitality and some of the best adventure racers in the country our sprints are sure to please both novice racers and veterans alike!  Are you ready for the Too Cool challenge?  Plan for winning times of around 4-hours at all three events.  Cut-off for the events will be sun down.

Prizes and awards for each race as well as prizes and awards for the series.
