The obstacle course has a number of challenging physical obstacles that an individual or team must navigate while racing against the clock. The course involves obstacles that the participants must climb over, crawl under, balance on, hang from or jump into. Puddles of muddy water, ropes, nets, and “no-touch” restrictions are used to make the course more difficult. Physical training, competition and teamwork are all possible outcomes. The wall, seesaw and monkey bars are some of the challenges.
