DITCH THE CITY RACING

Rules:

Check back for rules.

Distance Of The Race ⁄ Obstacles:

Approximatley 3–4 miles of true thrill seeking adventure running! You will complete the entire course by running and attempting to scale all abstacles (any obstacles not completed will result in a DNF). The course will be set up with the following (but not limited to):un–charted woods run,(find your way through the woods with little or no course markings), Lake Crossing (yes run through a shallow part of the lake) 4 foot wall climbing, tunnel crawling, hill scaling, slippery sliding, sprinkler splashing (getting drenched with sprinklers), Floating tire garden (navigate your way though the garden of tires in the lake)wheat straw bale jumping and a wild and crazy time!

About The Course ⁄ Terrain:

The race will start out in an open field adjacent to the lake at Crow´s lake which is required for spacing but will soon lead into the woods! Once you descend into the woods you will forget you are in the city and understand why we follow the creed Ditch The City! Once you leave the field you will run down a gravel road (navigating over a few bails of hay then into the woods) and then quickly disapear into the woods onto the trail. While on the trail you will come across a number of obstacles including (but not limited to), Lake Crossing (yes run through a shallow part of the lake ⁄ in 3-4 sections) tunnel crawling, mud ⁄ dirt hill scaling, slippery sliding (giant slip and slide), sprinkler splashing (getting drenched with sprinklers), Floating tire garden (navigate your way though the garden of tires in the lake) wheat straw bale jumping after finishing all obstacles you will finish back in the open field! These obstacles will be spread throughout the 3.1 mile course... that´s right, we will have natural and man made obstacles throughout the course this year!
