“My buddies & I had the best week together hiking across an amazing Italian mountain range, biking to wineries, and something I’ve never done – ran a race through vineyards! Don’t even get me started on the food……simply amazing.”

“This Adventure was just what the doctor ordered for a couple of my best friends. The training and focus required for this trip really helped all of us get back on a healthy track as we enter our “mature” years. I can’t say enough about the high level of quality and attention to detail the crew at ODA displayed. Meticulously planned events, a luxurious villa and first-class service from start to finish – we’ll definitely be back.”

“I never imagined that I would be visiting Venice, Italy, let alone running a race around that ancient city at night and over 51 bridges – this was a dream come true! Add to that several other challenging (but amazing) events combined with some of the best food and wine imaginable. My buddies can’t stop thanking me for putting this trip together for them – ODAdventures has made me a local Hero.”

John Hastings
Chief Old Dude - Old Dude Adventures
From half marathons, to hut-to-hut hiking through the Dolomites, to bike-packing across CO and many adventures between & beyond, I’ve learned that it is not about being the fastest.
It is about setting a goal, putting in the work, and rediscovering the joy of the climb with people you care about
That’s the spirit behind ODAdventures.

Clay Carter
Co-Chief Old Dude - Old Dude Adventures
From football to rowing to running the Olympic torch, adventure and grit have shaped my life. I’ve launched and sold companies, invested in others, and built a fulfilling career—but approaching a new chapter, I wanted something deeper.
That desire sparked ODAdventures: a place where health, purpose, and brotherhood converge. Whether we’re hiking trails or sharing stories fireside, this is about pushing limits and living fully—together.
