Course Description:
The mountain provides us will a virtual blank slate to create a whole new course that even athletes who have run the first two OCR World Championship events will encounter for the first time, creating an absolute even playing field.
The new terrain with greater elevation gain will provide new and unexpected challenges for athletes that have become accustomed to what we have offered previously. It lends itself to inventiveness for obstacle creation and even more opportunities to feature obstacles from our partner qualifying races as we’ve done in past years.
The OCRWC is the first truly independent global championship for the burgeoning sport of Obstacle Course Racing. It is a singular independent event created to unify, promote, and increase participation in the sport of OCR while celebrating its amazing athletes and community.
Featuring both an individual and team race, the OCRWC delivers everything you love about Obstacle Course Racing in one amazing weekend.
Aid Stations:
There will be aid stations along the course. Last year, we had 5.
Awards:
Cash/prizes are awarded to the top three male and female athletes in each individual division (Elite and Age Groups).
