ToughEnoughChallengeCrossFit of Brownwood will be hosting a physical fitness and obstacle course challenge on October 27th to test participants’ physical and mental toughness while having a good time with good food and to help a charity.

CrossFit Brownwood and Tough Enough Challenge 2012 are proud to support CrossFit and their efforts with Koins for Kenya. By participating in the Tough Enough Challenge 2012 and future events, participants will be helping raise money to build schools and fresh water systems in Kenya, an area of the world in dire need of help.

The course is a 1.5 mile off-road course with 6-8 man-made obstacles, 3 challenging exercise pit-stops (or 2 min penalty breaks if you can’t complete the exercises) and all the nature-made obstacles typical to this part of Texas. Participants will run through tight single track trails, open rocky  fields, dry (or possibly full) creek beds. Add to that some climbing, crawling, jumping, dragging, a little barbed wire and a lot of dirt and you have the perfect opportunity to put your physical and mental toughness to the test.  The first heat of the event begins at 9:00am on Saturday.

3 levels of difficulty to choose from:

Tough Enough Lite

Run the course once. Participants will run 1.5 miles, tackle 6-8 demanding obstacles and complete exercise challenges at 3 different pit-stops (if you can’t complete the exercises you can take the 2 min. penalty break and continue on the course).

Not tough enough for you? Step up to the Tough Enough Bold.

Tough Enough Bold

Running a 1.5 mile obstacle course is one thing, making yourself run the course a second time after you have already experienced how grueling it was the first time, now that’s tough! Take on the Tough Enough Bold and you will run the course twice. That’s 3 miles, 12-16 obstacles and 6 challenging exercise pit-stops. Are you Tough Enough to make it through?

Still not enough for you? Only the toughest of the tough will take on the Tough Enough Xtreme.

Tough Enough Extreme

How physically tough are you? How about mentally tough? Do you have what it takes to push through a grueling 8 min CrossFit workout before tackling 3 miles of trails, 12-16 obstacles and 3 exercise pit stops. If so the Tough Enough Xtreme is your race.

Fees to enter are $40 for Tough Enough Lite, $45 for Tough Enough Bold or $50 for Tough Enough Xtreme.

Participants will receive a t-shirt and a finisher medal.  To sign up for the event, click here.
