Event summary
But that's not all! Test your limits with the exhilarating 1 Mile Swole Sprint, where participants will combine strength and speed by bench pressing their body weight before sprinting a mile. This unique challenge allows for strategic racing, as every bench press rep completed deducts time from your mile, making it a race to remember!
All proceeds from this event will support local veterans and first responders in need, so your participation not only promotes fitness but also uplifts our community. Be sure to pre-register to secure your event T-shirt, as supplies may be limited closer to the date. Let's come together to honor those who serve and show our strength, both in action and in support!
