Weekly Prizes: We aren’t interested in the number of kilometers you travel on each trail, instead we are focusing on encouraging you to explore new trails!  To be considered eligible for the weekly prize draw you must show that you have conquered at least two different trails in one week.

Grand Prize: To get your hands on the grand prize we are going to take things up a notch. To qualify for the grand prize draw and earn the title of the RRA Trail Challenge Champion, you must demonstrate that you have completed at least five different trails in the month of October.
