Description
Metro Dash is the ultimate test of athleticism. Competitors run city streets in search of scattered physical challenge points, power through intense interval workouts, and conquer "The Gauntlet," our extreme urban obstacle course.
Age Requirement: You must be 18 years old on event day to compete in Metro Dash.
Field Limit: 200 athletes (Metro Dash will sell out, so sign up early to ensure your spot!)
Required Gear:
- Comfortable shoes and clothes that can get wet - we don't shy away from a little rain.
- You must carry your own water and food while on the course. There will only be one water station along the course.

Our philosophy:
Our philosophy is simple: We create hardcore, bare bones events that push competitors beyond their limits both mentally and physically. You won't find a 50-tent expo at the finish line, nor will you find a huge after party. Metro Dash is about you and your ability to conquer an extremely grueling course. Metro Dash is not a race; it is a challenge. There are no places, no times, and no awards. It's just you and your ability to push yourself as hard and as fast as possible. You only have yourself to cheat. If you are concerned with times and places, this challenge isn't for you.
Who is a Dasher?
A Metro Dasher is a person who laughs in the face of adversity, who is ready and willing when most others would run away, and who knows that the only way to success lies in hard work, sweat, and pain. A Dasher isn't concerned with place, time, or status. A Dasher would rather help a competitor complete a challenge than finish first. A Dasher will do the right thing even when nobody is watching, won't complain, and above all else will never quit.
* Please note if you have registered as a SEAL Supporter you must raise a minimum of $50 by 7/30/2010. If you fail to raise this minimum, you must pay an additional $20 to Metro Dash in order to remain eligible to compete.
