    AKA known as scrambles...
    I know what they are and they vary depending on the race and where it is held.
    I am going to do it but was just hoping to talk to someone who has done one....

    check this site out this is the one I am doing...you might have to navigate some..

    That sound's fun. If it weren't in March in New England that is. You're as likely to be running in a blizzard as you are to run in 70 degree sun. :laugh:

    Hmmmm. The link it took me to said it was July 31?? Oh, and one in June and yet a 3rd race! Sounds like a lot of fun though!! Good luck and enjoy it. You'll have to let us know how it was since, apparently, no one has done one!

    Hi Zen...I used to run 5Ks with military folk...we used to call them Fun Runs...I can only imagine that an extreme race would be up and down hills through rugged terrain, wearing combat boots and there may be watering holes or mud holes.

    Have Fun!
