We have added some new things to the race this year; I think you will love it!
A new Rope climb
A new 16 foot Tarzan Swing
A new Sandbag pull
A new 5k Burpee challenge
New mud pits, mud pits, mud pits!!!
A new kids race!
The kids’ Race will start at 9AM. The kids’ race will consist of 10 obstacles, mostly inflatables from Jumping Joey’s, and a mini mud pit at the end.
The kids’ race will have trophies for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. Each participant will receive a finisher medal and finisher shirt. Make sure your kids know how to do Burpees, it will be part of the race :)
Regular Run
A regular run is at least a 5k, or more, which consists of 15-20 obstacles plus mud pits.
This year the Elite heat will be at 10AM. There will be toughies for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. This is not timed, it’s whoever crosses the finish line 1st, 2nd and 3rd.
The regular run will start at 11AM and will be releasing groups that are ready to go every 15 Minutes.
Maximus Extremis
If the regular run is just a warm up for most of you, then the Maximus Extremis is where you can truly test your Metal:
Run 2 laps
Do the Burpee 5K
Complete all of the Feats of Strength
Do the Headhunter Sport
The Regular RUBICON RACE run and the Maximus Extremis run are the same price. Pretty cool huh.

Time Runs. As you can tell by now, time doesn’t really matter in this event. If you insist on knowing how fast you can do a circuit then I suggest you bring a stop watch and run with the elite at the 10 am heat. There will be medals for 1st, 2nd and 3rd places over all for the Elite run.
Body Paint. We got Black, White, Red and Blue paint to design and stripe your face and body for the Headhunter Sport. So again, make sure you wear short sleeves and shorts.
After Party. Killer music, grilled food and drinks = EPIC AFTER PARTY!
Get pumped and get registered. Register early so you will get the times you want and also to make sure your shirts are at the race rather than having them mailed to you.
