Team thisABILITY Adventure Racing

Realizing Success by Helping Others Realize Theirs

Welcome to thisABILITY Racing! Pushing our limits is what we do and Adventure Racing is how we do it. Focus on YOUR ability, push your limits in whatever way you can, but if you are looking for a way to incorporate all of your outdoor skills into one sport, come along with us. Adventure Racing will have you biking, paddling, and trekking, and maybe even climbing and rappelling with only a map and compass to guide you!

In our personal and professional lives, we love and support people with developmental disabilities. The best way to help them succeed is to focus on what they can do instead of what they can't. And more importantly, they have taught us that this holds true for all of us!

So, get outside and take your adventures to the next level.
