We have established Xcite to bring the fun and excitement of urban and off-road adventure racing to the Sunshine Coast.
After having competed in a number of orienteering, rogaining and adventure races in SEQ, we thought “Why don’t we have races like this on the Sunshine Coast?”.
In 2015, we dreamt of running an urban adventure race around the Mountain Creek/Brightwater to showcase the area where we train. Our aim is to bring fun urban and off-road adventure races to the Sunshine Coast, that will be available and achievable for anyone with a get out and do it attitude, at an affordable price. There are many places on the Coast, and beyond, where we are planning races that have all the elements of adventure racing including trail running, kayaking, mountain biking, as well as other challenges we have in mind.
In 2017, we ran two Urban Adventure Races, being the Brightwater Bash and Twin Waters Urban Adventure Races. In 2018 and 2019, we organised a fully off-road race conducted within the Ewan Maddock Dam precinct on the Sunshine Coast. After the pandemonium of Covid in 2020, we are putting together two races for 2021. The first race will be at Donnybrook (the Donnybrook Dash) on 5 June. Enter the race through the Events/Upcoming Events page. The second race will be a reprised Brightwater Bash, currently in the planning stages, and further details will be announced soon (we anticipate race date in September/October).
As well as organising races, we also compete as Xcite AR at foot and multi-sport rogaines, and adventure races.
