About Us
AROC Sport Mission: to provide a fun
and challenging outdoor
experience and promote the development of
teamwork, strategy and fitness through adventure racing.
AROC Sport was established in early 2003 by the two of us - Tom
Landon-Smith and Alina
McMaster.
We have competed in numerous adventure races both internationally and locally.
Racing as Team AROC we have won the XPD, Geoquest, Cairns Eco-Adventure, and
Maximum Adventure Races in Australia. We came 2nd in the 2003 Subaru Primal
Quest and 1st in the Chicago Wild Onion Urban 24 hour Adventure Race. We have
placed in the top 5 in various Eco-Challenge events and 3rd in the New Zealand
Southern Traverse event. We were both previously members of the Australian
Cross-Country Ski Team and former Australian Rogaining champions. Alina was
the Australian representative for the Land Rover G4 Challenge in 2006.
We are very excited about what we do. We want to share this excitement and
the secret of our success and show you just how much fun you can have through
our adventure racing events. The fun and fitness achieved through outdoor
challenges offers new insights for advancing ourselves at work and play, rekindling
health and happiness, and enjoying the great outdoors Australian style. Ultimately,
the more we discover what we can do, the better the world around us becomes.
Outdoor challenges are the best way we have found to make a difference.
We want you to give adventure racing a try. We want you to find a fun way
to a healthy lifestyle.
We are sure you will love it.
