“Dirty Dozen Races: Everybody knows Doug from Dirty Dozen. He’s a fantastic guy and really endeared himself to all the racers and the community at his event by introducing himself to all of them on the morning of his first event. He put himself out there for all to see to show he was proud of what he had in store for them and that he stood by it. This really paid off for him as every review we have had from this event has been outstanding saying that the obstacles are so well put together that they rival the big boys. Keep up the amazing work Doug.”

“It’s muddy, very wet and testing enough to bring great smiles of achievement after you’ve finished!” – “I really like at these races is that people act as a team, even if they’re not actually in your team. A few times I helped other competitors out by giving them a hand up from a swamp or a leg up on the high walls, and an equal amount of times other people helped me too. That’s good, to have that connection with strangers.” – click here to read the article.

A great event with big obstacles!” – Fay Kelly
