Warrior Dash obstacle races, mud run, and OCR information, distance, cost, dates, calendar, discounts, obstacles, reviews, and more

Warrior Dash is the world's largest running series and is held on challenging and rugged terrains across the world. Participants bound over fire, trudge through mud and scale over 12 obstacles during this fierce 5K. From couch potatoes to novice runners to extreme athletes, Warrior Dash truly is an event for all athletic abilities.
The inspiration behind Warrior Dash was to create the most bad-ass day possible. It is a day where participants can challenge themselves, be active and get muddy. Participants tackle the course and then celebrate their accomplishments with beer, food and live music.
Warrior Dash is an alternative to the classic 5K and provides an incomparable experience for participants and spectators. The unique combination of athleticism, live music, turkey legs and beer keeps Warriors coming back for more.
Warrior Dash is partnered with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. The St. Jude Warriors program encourages Warrior Dash racers to fundraise for St. Jude. With the help of 2012 participants Warrior Dash has raised over 2 million dollars for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
Red Frog Events prides itself on creating the Active Entertainment Industry, which is a combination of fitness, entertainment and event management. As a leader in the industry, we strive to make each Warrior Dash more unique and challenging than the last. Innovation is continuously brewing back at Red Frog Events office where the whole team is dreaming up new obstacles and twists for Warrior Dash. In the end, we are in the business of having fun!

Easier every year
Seems like the yare making it easier every year. ??? been doing for 4 years now, will probably continue.
Love These Races
this is my 3rd Warrior Race....2016 my girlfriend and I did the Washington DC race...this year my son, friend and I did the Clarksburg race....You get a lot for your money from beginning to end. I love running these races and cannot wait for them to come around again....
Great event!
This was such a blast. It was my first time ever doing an OCR. A friend did it with me, his first time also. It was a great one to start out with I think. It had some challenges but overall it wasn’t too hard at all. We definitely got to run, get muddy, climb over, under and through things and drink beer! Great volunteers and other runners! Very fun time. Can’t wait for next year!
Crooked Organization
STAY AWAY FROM THIS ORGANIZATION!! They changed the Tri State location from June 23 2018 to October 27, 2018 and from North Jersey to Eastern Long Island just on FRIDAY! ONE WEEK NOTICE!
No Offer for refunds. The venue is now 3 1/2 hours away from me and at the end of October.
There is nothing tri-state about an eastern Long Island Location.
Choose another organization for your mud run adventures.
I enjoyed the obstacles but hated all the hills. I think you should be told about the hills. That first one is a big one! Also the lack of water stations was very disappointing. There was one at the beginning and not another one till almost the end. Neither the medics or volunteers had any to hand out either. I was completely dehydrated by the end of the course
First experience with Warrior Dash. Took up a volunteer shift from 8-1:30, got let off our shift at 12:40, and I figured me and my buddy would have enough time to go back to our car for our race gear, com3 back and change, use the porta potty, and drop off our bag at bag check before racing. We got to the start line at 1:20 only to be told the last wave of racers was let through at 1pm and we weren't allowed to race. When we talked to the staff at solutions we were told they don't give out free race vouchers and we were given a support email to find a solution instead. We had reason to believe they would let out waves at least until 1:30 since out volunteer shift was scheduled to potentially last that long, but the staff failed to communicate to us that the last wave would be let out only 20 mins after we checked out and now we have to wait a whole year before the next one in Socal. It's not worth it to travel out of state for a 5k obstacle race to me. It was gonna be my buddy's first OCR as well and now I don't know if he'll be able to race it next year since he usually works on weekends. Made a 4 hour drive and wasted money for a campsite reservation the night before just to get screwed over. At least I eventually got a free race code after emailing them. Btw, the email staff gave us didn't work and I had to fetch the support email myself. My advice, go with Spartan races. They at least make sure you race at the same event if you volunteer and want to run.
Great fun
Great fun. My daughter and I did this run last year in the rain and decided to come back a second year. We had a great time and enjoyed the obstacles.
Alright
I been doing the NYC Warrior race 3 years in a row now. I found it more organized each year since. The race is still the same location. It is still a fun race with most of it covering hilly wooded terrain. Its not really an advance race and each year seems to get easier obstacle wise.
It's not really for the hardcore but made for the beginners, 'weekend' warrior and those who love to Instagram & Facebook look what I did Sat and look how muddy I got as people were rolling in the mud obstacles like pigs in a mud bath just to show that.
Keep coming back
3rd year in a row at Warrior Dash Ohio, I think one year it was named Warrior Dash Ohio II, anyways its in canal fulton area, the course is good, plenty of room to pass or in my case get passed. The obstacles have some wait but not as bad at other events. One or 2 times I have seen obstacles closed do to damage or injury. All in all I love this one as I am able to grab a beer afterward unlike the 10+ milers that I am just happy to survive.
Great for Beginners, Still Fun for Competitive Athletes
Info for Competitive Athletes:
The obstacles are not particularly technical, nor are athletes penalized for failing/required to complete the obstacle. It is very much a runner's race in this regard. That said, the terrain at Milky Way Farms was tough, starting on a steep, unforgiving incline. It is very clear that Warrior Dash targets the fun run "weekend warriors," but the competitive division is still available and offers some great prizes including: a free race entry, a voucher for Vibram shoes, and (at least in this case) an OCRWC qualifier shirt for podium finishers. In short, it's fun, but don't expect your upper body/grip strength to be challenged much.
For Non-Competitive Athletes:
If you've been toying with the idea of an OCR or mud run, this is a great entry-level course to introduce any and everyone to the sport of OCR. You can finish this course with very little training. Go have fun with your buddies and earn some really fun swag. The festival has some good activities for everyone, too.
