Singles Adventure Race Nicaragua

The Single Adventure Race teams compete against one another in a race against time and money to four different locations and adventures around Nicaragua.

     The race is based on everyone on the teams making it to the location and completing the adventure.  These adventures do not require a great deal of physical strength or danger. Winning the race is based on team work and strategy.

     The Single Adventure Race is open to single people of all ages and sexes.

Objectives

Every person needs to have $500 to start the race. This is the max that you can use to get all the adventures completed. You get money points as a team for being the first to complete an adventure. You do get extra money points for being the first team back.

You can get to each place in any method you choose, you can stay in any accommodation you choose and you can eat whatever you choose.

Winning Money

• At the end of the race, the team that comes back with the most money then wins the remaining money from everyone else.
