Epoch Hybrid Description
In the Spirit of Mike Wardian, we have designed an event series (The Epoch Hybrid) that allows you to choose your own adventure, but still get the required nourishment and hydration.
Join us for a challenge where Old Dominion Racing teams up with local food joints, breweries, and the like to give you “watering holes” in a safe and secure manner. Each location will have Gatorade and/or water bottles (individual containers) for your consumption. In addition, these locations have partnered with ODR to provide a meal, a beer, or something of similar worth to all participants (based on your registration level).
How It Works
Register with Old Dominion Racing.
ODR will send you a packet. It will include an Epoch Series Tyvek Wristbands used for sustenance at one of the partner locations.
Register your Strava, Fitbit, Polar, or Garmin account with https://raceIOT.io.
During your event run your distance.
MAKE SURE TO LOG YOUR MILES THROUGH YOUR DEVICE (see step 3).
You are welcome to plan your route so that you arrive at these locations during the organization’s operating hours. Or if you just want to go to our partner locations after you run, you’re welcome to do that, too!
When you feel hunger or thirst during your sojourn in the wilderness, you are welcome to stop at any of the participating locations.
You also will be able to have a meal, a beer n exchange for a food wristband.

“Britain’s most remote bar ‘The Old Forge’ pub is located in Inverie, which is so isolated in the Scottish Highlands that no roads connect the village to the rest of the country. Thirsty travelers need to hike 17 miles over very rough terrain, or take a 7-mile ferry ride.” Source: Weird Facts
