Experience The Extreme 5K Adventure Run
Are you ready to be EXTREME? Brought to you by the creators of the legendary Christmas Cave! Our adventure run with natural obstacles are waiting to test your endurance and commitment. The 5K obstacle course through beautiful dense woods, hills, and creeks are exhilarating challenges to conquer. Acres of inclines and declining hills throughout this 5K will test your body, while the dark, eerie underground Mine portion boasts an experience like no other race can. It’s the only underground race of its kind in the Tri-State area!
Early Registration Ends June 8th
The Obstacles
Elevation
The incredible elevation changes of steep Inclines, Descents and Dips throughout the property are a few fun challenges that will push your muscles to their breaking point.
The Mines
56 degrees year round, while partially lit by electric as well as more antiquated methods. Each passageway is approximately 20-30' wide and 20'+ high. It’s huge, dark and beautiful to behold as you speed through the maze inside.
Chilly Jordan
A waist deep wade through the Mines water. Did we mention it's a freezing 50 degrees?
Tame the Flame
A fire jump-over testing your leap of faith.
Pondered
Ponder whether to use the rope or swim through our natural pond.
Highway to Heaven
Rope-assisted hill on a 45-55 degree angle.
Devil's Rock
A twisty, rope-assisted climb on our mine's rock face. Steady now.
Ditch of Doom
We don't jog through tires here...you get limber over and under some timbers and ditches!
Mirey Clay
Shimmey through a murky muddy mess.
Devil's Armpit
One of our several “natural” obstacles, is actually a historical artifact left over from the 18th century “Iron Age” of Southern Ohio, when the locals would excavate the hilltops in search of iron ore to feed the many charcoal furnaces of the area. Now that you know the history, you can really enjoy the slippery, muddy mess as you struggle through it!
Mt. Zion
Another rope-assisted climb to a new elevation. You can do this!
Decision Valley
Time to make a last minute decision!
Pit of Despair
Move through a deep water pit and continue to the finish!
