Course and obstacles
The route is a trail run with on- and off-road sections. The course includes permanent obstacle structures, pop-up challenges, and mud pits. The path is accessible by foot year-round and is mowed starting in February. Workout gloves are recommended for features such as the pressure wall and monkey bars. Teammates may assist one another on obstacles.
Participants who cannot complete an obstacle may skip it by performing a penalty of 20 burpees or by surrendering a bracelet to an obstacle volunteer; a participant who does not complete obstacles may still finish the race but will be ineligible for awards. Teams are required to complete the race and finish together.
Logistics and awards
Race day programming includes packet pick up, vendors, food trucks, ceremonies, and awards. Early packet pick up is available the night before at Restoration House Ministries Gleanings Resale Shop (1204 N. Moody). The top three finishers in adult (20 years and older) and youth (under 20 years) divisions for each category will be awarded and recognized at closing ceremonies. Spectators are welcome.
