La Ruta de los Conquistadores


Kevin Clark left Friday for La Ruta De Los Conquistadores, November 9th, from Virginia to Costa Rica. La Ruta is a 4 day "hard core" adventure race. With some of the most difficult terrain and extreme climate conditions this race is sure to test Kevin's mental stability and physical capabilities! La Ruta crosses the Central America country from West coast to the Caribbean beach of Playa Bonita. In the middle of this West to East jaunt is a volcanic chain of mountains that rise 11,259 feet above sea level.










The highest point being the Irazu Volcano.












In the end, riders will have climbed over 40,000 feet in total.








Check back for updates. We wish Kevin the best and may the force be with him!
