The Race Across Alaska Winter Challenge (RAAWC) is celebrating its 5th year this Winter 2024-2025! This is a multi-sport, multi-distance winter challenge to log as many miles as you can over three months starting the first day of winter, December 21st, 2024 and ending the last day of winter, March 20th, 2025.
You can Walk, Run, Fat Tire Bike, Indoor Bike, XC Ski, Swim, or log “other” for exercises not included like ice skating, kick sledding, stand-up paddle boarding, or anything else where you can accrue mileage. Next, you will pick which race distance you’d like to accomplish across Alaska with your choice of eight different routes of varying distances depending on your goals!
