The Bitter Pill is a summer adventure race for teams of two or three. We will be holding the 15th Bitter Pill on August 10th, 2019. This race features summer disciplines like hiking, biking, and time on the water – as well as requiring you to continually navigate. The organizers are known for being able to really challenge experienced teams while providing a great race for the first-timers. If you have never done an adventure race before, this is a great way to get started.
