Disclosure: I was provided race entries for giveaway to promote this race on my blog. As always all opinions are my own.
Do you enjoy a good obstacle course? Like Foam Parties, Moon Bounces, Slides, Swings and Wrecking Balls? Are you a fan of Wipeout or TV Game Shows with Physical Challenges? OK, this has nothing to do with the TV show, but the wrecking ball brought it to my mind. If you answered yes to any or all of these, I have a race for you: The R.O.C. 5k Race. What IS R.O.C. you ask, well its the Ridiculous Obstacle Challenge, “The Craziest 5k of Your Life”.
If you want to be a bonafied R.O.C. Star, without having to release tracks or go on tour, this is the event you have been waiting for. R.O.C. Race is the original game show-inspired obstacle run featuring 12 larger than life obstacles including the infamous Wrecking Ball, the brand new Jump Balls, and the World’s Largest Inflatable Water Slide!
This is an untimed event open to everyone, from couch potatoes to track stars, ages 13 and up! Among the obstacles at the R.O.C challenge:
R.O.C is a growing with event locations all over the place.
Also Canadian events planned for Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, and Calgary. Nice, Eh?! |
You can sign up for events, here – AND if registration is NOT open yet in your city of choice, you can enter your email to be notified when its open.
Now, have I done this race? No, and for your info, I have not done ANY obstacle races. I do know many of my followers who love Obstacle Races and well this one looks fun – whether participant or cheerleader.
The kind folks at the R.O.C. 5k Race have offered me 2 FREE Race Entries for the Atlanta race. Open to US Residents over 18 only. Two winners will recieve one entry each, selected at random via Rafflecopter. Good Luck….is this YOUR cup of tea?
