Running towards the beautiful Mount. Fuji, you will see the mountain intermittently throughout the trail along the coastline. The terrain is predominately soft grass and in some places a dirt track. Due to the proximity to the sea be prepared for windy and sunny conditions with little shade or cover from the elements.

For the second day of the ARJ challenge, a Rogaining course has been designed to test your teamwork, innovation, and analytical skills. Rogaining is an orienteering sport involving route planning and navigation between checkpoints. In a rogaine, teams will choose which checkpoints to visit with the idea of gaining the most number of points within the quickest time. Maps and full details will be provided on arrival at the ARJ event.
Your performance during both days, together with your team fundraising, will be factored in to determine an overall event winner. So there will be far more to this challenge than simply being first across the finish line on day 1!!
