Participating solo is a great way to challenge yourself and see what you’re really made of!
If you’d like a hand with some of the obstacles, we encourage you to enter into our “Black Dog Wave” at 9:20am Saturday and Sunday.
The Black Dog Wave is designed for solo-ists to meet like-minded Gritters and to provide encouragement and mateship throughout the course! We’re so proud to be a supporter of Black Dog Institute!
Make a team and invite your friends, family and gym crew along for the adventure.
Tackling the course with a group is so much fun. You can cheer each other on and help one another through, over AND under the harder obstacles.
Once you select your preferred day to participate, you can create the team name and manage the members of your team.
If you don’t have a team and don’t want to run the course solo, sign up to one of our Black Dog Waves – your chance to meet other like-minded Gritters, make some new friends and tackle the course together.
To enter as an Elite, you must select the ‘Elite’ wave on the Saturday of event weekend.
This will be the first wave out of the gate to kick off the event, and the top ten times of the event will be recorded at the finish line. Top 3 of both male and female will place on the podium and will receive a prize at our presentations (typically around 1030am).
Elites get first access to the course, before it’s been muddied up too much by everyone else! Our Elites do have a burpee penalty of 20 burpees for every obstacle failed or not attempted.
Volunteers are critical to the success of our event, and for this reason, a fixed amount is charged when registering, and once volunteer shifts are completed, volunteers will receive a refund, allowing them to run for free (if they choose) on the other event day or in the afternoon for 1-day events.
We do this to ensure volunteers show up for their shifts. If a volunteer does not show up for their shift, they will not receive this money back.
* A small non-refundable admin fee applies to all registrations. If you do not complete your volunteer shift, you will not be eligible for a refund
