Organiser's Description
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.
