Hosted by Case Creek Trails, Tails & Obstacles OCR, this event is specifically designed to ignite the inner ninja in children aged 4 to 11. Participants will tackle a thrilling 1.5-mile adventure course set on a picturesque farm, winding through scenic hills, enchanting woods, pastures, and rugged terrain, with typical race day conditions seeing highs around 85F and lows around 64F, and only a 14% chance of precipitation.
The course boasts over 30 unique obstacles, including balance beams, rope mazes, a rock wall, tire runs, a pyramid, log cabins, and even a commando military crawl, ensuring a challenge for every skill level. While some obstacles will test their agility and strength, others are designed to be "a piece of cake," and all are optional, encouraging fun and participation over competition. Special pre-run ninja obstacles add to the excitement, and spectators will find designated viewing areas along the course to cheer on their little ninjas. Every participant must be accompanied by a parent or guardian, making it a perfect family adventure that promises lifetime memories.
