Rules & Regulations for Competition

Furthermore, you must complete the obstacle on your own accord without any assistance from a volunteer, fellow competitor or spectator. If you are unable to complete the obstacle, there will be penalty lanes built into the course at specific obstacles.

For the enduro competitors, there will be a minimum course completion time per loop; however, the lap times may fluctuate throughout the event. 

For all athletes, any violation of the course rules will result in your immediate removal from the course and disqualification for podium awards. Always strive to do your best.
