The team that wins the first annual Upstate Adventure Race, set for October 25th, 2008 near Cleveland, SC, will be awarded a free entry to the 2008 Abu Dhabi Adventure Challenge. The prize includes round trip airfare from the US to Abu Dhabi for 4 racers.

"The Abu Dhabi Adventure Challenge is a spectacular event that takes place in a magnificent corner of the world that most of us know little or nothing about," commented, Paul "Yak" Angell, president of Checkpoint Zero, LLC.

"This partnership between Checkpoint Zero and the Abu Dhabi Tourism Authority will provide a once in a lifetime opportunity for one team that would likely never get the chance to travel internationally for a race like this, let alone to an exotic location like Abu Dhabi," Paul continued.

"I'm really excited to be able to offer such an exciting prize to the racers that have supported Checkpoint Zero's transition into a event production by attending the first two editions of the Checkpoint Zero Adventure Race. We're very excited about the Upstate Adventure Race and are confident this new relationship with the ADTA will help us make this it equally successful."

More information about the Upstate Adventure Race, including details and rules for the Abu Dhabi Adventure Challenge prize will be released later this week.

Teams are encouraged to register for the Upstate Adventure Race sooner than later as the race will be capped at 60 teams.
