Grit ‘N Wit hits the nail on the head, a unique event combining brains and brawn. It’s only in its second year of putting on an event and it’s very unique in the fact that half of the obstacles/challenges are mental challenges and not just based on physical talent. Co-creator/race director James Moher and he was gracious enough to answer some questions about his upcoming event.
The Spartan Race this year was held in the same venue that was voted “Muddiest Spartan” last year, and though there was less mud, it was considerably warmer and the race experience was an improvement. Many new obstacles have been added to Sprint Races this year, while several others receive modifications and upgrades from race to race. Overall the bar has been raised on what to expect from a Sprint.
OCRSandy continues his quest to complete all the OCRUNITED Series races as he takes on F.I.T. Epic Challenge.
Did you miss any of the action over the weekend? we have the results from ABF Mud Run, Savage Race and Spartan Race Las Vegas and Tri-State.
It has been a few years since my last Warrior Dash in Florence, AZ, which seemed to be a dusty place in the middle of nowhere. I remember the 2-day event with its swinging tires and rusty cars. At the time they had timing chips and really cool live filming of the finishers and updated top finishers. It was a different race with a different vibe. Now it has transformed into a classier course with a less competitive yet more fun vibe.
BoldrDash kicks off their season with their Beach race in Narragansett, Rhode Island on May 2nd. BoldrDash’s President Lynn Hall spilled the beans on the upcoming event.
Chad Mason is extremely busy getting ready for his event this weekend, so I am very grateful for the answers he provided about his event this weekend. An obstacle race with a cause.
Nervous chatter. Remember that? It’s the sound you heard when you walk into an OCR, and you’re surrounded by people who haven’t run many of them before. They see the obstacles, off in the distance, and wonder how they’ll do it. They hear the announcer pumping the next wave up and turn to their friends … “what the hell did you get me into?"
Now, the day is here it's time to conquer the Ultra Beast. You’re a 2-4 weeks out time to do a full gear and nutrition check. You want to have everything purchased weeks before the race.
