Crusher Race
It's the baddest, most awesome, muddiest test of your stamina, mental strength, camaraderie, and fitness. There are different races depending on your level of fitness and the amount of fun you want to have. Obstacles, Running, Mud and Beer all for the benefit of local charities.
Crusher - (Beginner)
This intro level course will get your heart racing and your body muddy. A significant challenge for the first timer but a fun time for everyone. The only question is: Will you crush it or will it crush you?
Crusher 2 - (Experienced)
You have messed around with 5ks, trail running and hit the gym a bunch so you think you're ready. Let's find out. You start by running the Crusher with your friends, but as their adventure ends it's time to get serious. You will need strength, stamina, agility and mental fortitude to survive. We have extended your course for several more miles and designed obstacles that WILL crush you. Only through support and cooperation will you and your fellow Crushers conquer your fears and make it through. And for that you will be rewarded.
