    I have 15 OCR's on my schedule this year. I think. Maybe more. I've lost count of how many I did lol. Last year I earned a 3x trifecta plus other races. Started OCR in 2014.

    Hi I'm Mary, I am a newbie to OCR/running. I am planning on doing a regular 5k in a couple months, and my first OCR in June! I decided to start with a Warrior Dash because it seems like a good beginner race. My ultimate goal (maybe next year) is to do a Spartan trifecta!

    Hey guys, I did afew OCR's last year, and currently booked on for 22 this year including a full trail/obstacle marathon, 20 miler and weekend trifecta. I am based in the UK so some of the companies may not be over in the US too. My partner has already qualified for the EU and World Champs, hoping that will be me next year, still struggling with some compulsory obstacles (hate the monkey bars).

    I'm doing my first mud run in a month! Not gonna lie, totally nervous!! I'm doing mud hero because it's seems like an easier place to start ( no burpees!). Possibly Spartan before the end of summer of the first one goes well!

    Hi. I ran my first Warrior dash in Oct. 2014. The following spring I was diagnosed with Mixed Connective Tissue Disease which severely sidelined my entire life, weight and health. I'm struggling to get back on track but I want to work my way back up and earn the Spartan Trifecta and maybe even go on the Spartan Cruise. After that the sky is the limit.

    Not sure how active this group still is, but I've been ding OCRs since 2012. I only do 2-3 a year because of time and that $#!+ can get expensive! I also am the PTO chair of my kiddo's elementary school OCR that takes place every May. I live in New England, so overall have a shorter race season. This year I'm signed up for Rugged Maniac (do that one every year) and trying to pick a couple others.

    I've done several dozen -- Spartan Races, Tough Mudders, Savage Races, BoneFrog Challenge, and so forth. Including a few highly prestigious races. Closer to 100 if you include various trail races and half-marathons.
