Most obstacle events are built around one person in the household. This one was designed from the beginning around the opposite idea — the whole family goes out on the course at the same time, and comes back covered in the same mud.
01
One course, everybody on it
Parents, children and whoever else you bring run the same lap together. Nobody is split into a separate lane and nobody is left holding the bags.
02
Built for first timers
A mile and a half to two miles, with obstacles designed to be completed by an adult and a child together. Walking the whole thing is a completely normal way to do this.
03
The family is the point
You are not here to post a time. You are here so that in ten years your children still bring up the morning you all came home filthy.

Complete your five Challenge moments
Capture your family experience at Home, Travelling, Arrival, On the Course and Finish Line. At each stop, capture one family photo and one short video clip of about 10 seconds or less. "On the Course" doesn't need everyone in frame; one obstacle or moment from anyone in your family counts.

Final review step & mystery freebie
After your Challenge submission is reviewed, our team will send the final review instructions directly to you. Complete that final step, a Google review. Once our team confirms that every completion requirement is done, your family receives the mystery freebie.
The part you keep
What you capture here becomes part of your family’s story.
The muddy clothes will get washed and race day will end, but the photos, videos, laughs and little moments you captured together are something your family can come back to long after the event is over.
And when the Challenge is complete, there’s a mystery freebie waiting for your family too.
