    To the people asking "how do I get started...?"
    Build up your exercise routine to include cycling, paddling (if you can get a boat) and running.
    Find and start doing orienteering, and / or rogaining in your area. Learn to navigate by doing - you'll get fitter doing it too.
    Find and commit to a short event with a keen friend (or tell the organisers you need a buddy and you're a noobie).
    Organisers of these events - orienteering, rogaining, adventure racing are mostly keen to help new people. Contact me if you have more questions - I live in Australia and getting started is easy with an abundance of events to choose from in these disciplines in most more populated areas.

    When people ask I say "coed team of four with a map and compass travelling between far checkpoints in the bush on foot, bike, and canoe" but that doesn't do it justice. Thanks for the video, I will use this to help explain.

    So happy for the privilege of engaging in the pursuit of this peacetime sport. Whomever does the same, I urge you to seek understanding of the political systems that wield authority over the lands (people) through which you travel. After all, the world isn't only our playground. Thank you for this post! Extraordinary!! Ciao.

    *This* should be an Olympic sport. Although it’s far beyond the level of an Olympic sport…
    Probably comes close to that of a triathlon, except 3 to 10x harder than a triathlon.

    Where can I find out about some adventure races near me (Hong Kong and Asia)? I did a google search but didn't come up with anything worthwhile - other than a bunch of races and an association in the U.S.
