About

Ultra Distance Obstacle Course Survival Race in the beautiful but rugged Texas Hill Country. Enerything out here bites, stings, scratches and just plain hurts. The objective of this race is to strip you of all comforts and to put you in a true Survival mode. The obstacles/challenges will be natural and based on the native cultural history of the area and the Hunter Gatherer way of life. The terrain will be extremely rough, with some trails, lots of bushwhacking etc. Tasks will include memorizing, carrying, climbing, throwing, digging, building etc.

The obstacles (challenges) are setup to make this course a pass or fail. This course contains some of the most challenging obstacles ever seen in an obstacle course event. Not your average obstacle course, you will not be scaling wallks or doing burpees, you may be doing things you have never done before. Most obstacles will not be revealed until race day; be ready for anything!
