Optimal Wear For Adventure Racing Efforts

By Robert Sutter


While looking your best is going to be important in many ways, I feel as though it is less prominent when it comes to adventure racing. This is where you should have the best clothing in terms of execution; your appearance does not matter nearly as much in this regard. As a result, what are some of the aspects that you should bring in when going about this level of racing? Here are a couple of elements that should help to make your efforts that much easier.

Form-fitting types of clothing are going to be needed if you want to make the most out of this level of racing. You never want to wear clothes that are loose, to an extent, since there is a good chance that you will hit a snag whether in the form of barbed wire or what have you. I've seen a number of individuals in adventure racing who have been slowed down because of this. Choose your clothing accordingly before you get involved in certain types of events, Spartan Race included.

For those of you who are curious about shoe options, the idea of the perfect fit is going to have to be seen here. However, you want to choose ones that you are okay with getting dirtied since there will be a couple of different terrain types to move along. It goes without saying that you are not going to look one-hundred percent clean in this regard. If you are not afraid with one pair of shoes taking a beating, make sure that they are used.

While on the subject of shoes, you want to make sure that you chose the most fitting ones carefully. The reason that I say this is because you want to tie them up tightly so that you do not fly out of them for one reason or another. For example, have you ever seen someone lose a shoe in the mud because it was not as secured as it should have been? It's a particular element of this level of racing that should not be ignored, since you will waste time it retrieving your sneaker.

Adventure racing entails select types of clothing and I hope that this has been able to help you along. It's clear that various aspects are able to come into effect and some of them may prove to be more effective than others. If you are able to keep these aspects in mind, it will not be long until you figure out what the best clothing options are in general. You may be surprised by how much said choices can help differentiate between wins and losses on the field.
