Event details

Are you up for the challenge?

This is not your ordinary flat Crossfit challenge or an obstacle run where you bypass the obstacles for a couple of pushups or burpees. This is a no-nonsense test of your fitness. There is no hype, no shirt that says you ran the "Beast" or the Trifecta when you walked around most of the obstacles. This is a straightforward course with straightforward expectations. Registration does include a shirt, but you only get it if you finish the course within the allotted time. 

The course consists of 2 Mile loops.  All races will begin at 9am.

  • Alpha: 6 Miles Finish Under 60 Minutes
  • Beta: 4 Miles Finish Under 60 Minutes
  • Pup: 2 Miles Finish Under 60 Minutes

 

A two-mile loop with over 300 feet of elevation gain/loss. The course is a two-mile loop with 5 challenges per loop. 

5 obstacles/challenges.
