About the Almost Heaven Adventure Race

Founded in 2023 by Mark Harris, Mike Chaney, and Travis Siehndel, the Almost Heaven adventure race immediately made an impact on racers and the local community. The race brings exposure to one of the true gems in outdoor adventures – West Virginia. By highlighting the beauty and rugged terrain of the region, the Almost Heaven Adventure Race provides racers a true challenge, made somewhat easier by the majestic backdrop of the Monongahela National Forest.

In 2023, a sold-out field of more than 100 racers, including some of the sport’s icons, took part in the inaugural Almost Heaven 24-hour adventure race in Tucker County, West Virginia over October 7th and 8th, 2023. The event course required teams of one to four people to run, bike, and paddle across the region to collect checkpoints while using only a map and compass for navigation; all within the allotted 24 hours. The overall winning team last year was ‘No Complaints’ composed of members Douglas Ritzert, Eric Olsen, Jennifer DeBruyn, and Nathanael Smith.
