A couple dozen teams are all geared up and ready to go at the 7 Cerros Urban Adventure Race in Medellin, Colombia.

At 6 A.M. competitors from around the globe will begin a three day adventure that will include: trekking through urban jungles, descending skyscrapers and waterfalls, skating along the steep windy roads, archery, shooting, descending steep hills with boxcarts, diving, paddling, and cycling some of the world´s most challenging hills – not too mention a variety of surprises and obstacles.

Adventure World Magazine is attending the event and will be bringing you the latest. Check back often for photos and videos of this exciting South American urban adventure.

After an award winning debut edition last Summer, the Untamed New England Adventure Race joins with premiere races from around the planet in the Adventure Racing World Series (AR World Series). The Untamed New England Adventure Race returns to New Hampshire in July 2009, this time as the only American race in the prestigious global Series. Podium finishers at Untamed New England will battle for over $10,000 in prizes and qualify for the World Championship race being held in Portugal in December 2009.

AWM has completed its first year and we are excited to be heading into year 2 with even more great things in store.  Check us out at www.adventureworldmagazine.com
