The Warrior Dash combines the costumes of a renaissance festival with the competitive spirit of an Olympic race, plus the fun and excitement of an outdoor concert venue. Racers wear silly costumes like togas, business suits, wedding dresses, and tutus (worn by guys), and of course, viking helmets as they run through obstacles like mud pits, cargo nets and military crawls. Friends, family members, and spectators can enjoy live music, beer and food while cheering on their favorite contestants. The racers join in the celebration as they complete the course. |
