Adventure Racing Team Fitness Intake Form

Prepare Your Team for Multi-Day Adventure Racing Success

Adventure racing is one of the most demanding endurance sports, combining orienteering, trail running, mountain biking, paddling, and climbing into non-stop 24+ hour challenges that push athletes to their absolute limits. Whether you're coaching an adventure racing team, organizing a multi-day expedition race, or running a specialized training program, you need to understand each athlete's multisport capabilities, mental resilience, and team compatibility before they hit the course.

This Adventure Racing Team Fitness Intake Form is purpose-built for adventure racing coaches, expedition race organizers, and wilderness fitness programs that specialize in ultra-endurance multisport events. It goes far beyond standard fitness assessments to evaluate the unique demands of adventure racing: navigation competency, sleep deprivation tolerance, team dynamics, wilderness skills, and psychological readiness for races that can last 48-72 hours or longer.

Why Adventure Racing Requires Specialized Intake

Unlike single-discipline endurance sports, adventure racing demands:

• Multisport proficiency across running, cycling, paddling, and rope work
• Navigation skills for orienteering through unmarked wilderness terrain
• Mental toughness to push through extreme fatigue and sleep deprivation
• Team cohesion since adventure racing is fundamentally a team sport
• Wilderness competency including safety, first aid, and survival skills
• Equipment knowledge for transitions and gear management under pressure

A comprehensive intake form helps you identify skill gaps, match teammates effectively, design targeted training protocols, and ensure your athletes are genuinely prepared for the unique physical and psychological demands they'll face.
