No Ordinary Race II

Screen Shot 2015-08-03 at 8.47.35 AM

THIS SATURDAY! – We are bringing it back! No Ordinary Race II is a fun run with stations along the Santa Fe Trail where you will have to complete 4-6 CrossFit/Obstacle Course style events before continuing your run. Some examples include 100 yard med-ball toss, kettle bell swings, sandbag or heavy object carry, etc.

There will be a short (3ish miles) and a long course (6ish miles). The short course will involve 3 different small workouts along the way. If you can’t run, you can always bike the course but we suggest you do the long course.

More details about the workouts, heats, and course map will be released later this week.

If you are interested, please sign up >HERE<.

After race tacos and adult beverages will be provided. $10 to participate. First heat kicks off at 8 am!
