context_page_description: Frontier Adventure Sports and Training is the most establishedⁿᵉᵉᵈˢ ᶜⁱᵗᵃᵗⁱᵒⁿ adventure race organizer in Canada, in operation since 1997. Frontier Adventure Sports has established an international reputation for solid logistics and challenging racecourses. FAST hosts events under several banners: the Frontier Adventure Challenge, Raid the North and Raid the North Extreme. These non-stop races range in length from 8 hours to six days and require coed teams of three or four to hike, mountain bike, paddle and negotiate fixed ropes, while navigating an unmarked racecourse through the wilderness.
context_section_description: Since 1997, Raid the North events have been designed to highlight the natural elements of the host region environment.  The Raid the North Race Series consists of a national series of 36-hour races in various locations across Canada, during which teams will cover between 130 and 150 kilometers. A Raid the North Team is a co-ed group of four people with a variety of sport, outdoor and wilderness backgrounds.  Unlike RTNX, Raid the North events are geared towards the prepared first time adventure racer.
