COVID-19 UPDATE
As you know, at ERX, our first priority is always ensuring the health and safety of our employees and guests. Earlier in the year, we were hopeful that by postponing our Extreme 5k, we would be able to have a safe and fun event later this summer. However, as COVID-19 restrictions are still in place, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the 2020 event in favor of rescheduling for Spring 2021.
PUSH YOURSELF BEYOND THE EXPECTED
5 KILOMETERS • 18 OBSTACLES • 1 KICKASS EXPERIENCE
When it comes to extreme terrain, we wrote the book on it. From professional off-road truck racing, to Snocross, and so much more, extreme is not only in our name, it’s who we are. With more than 500 acres of rolling terrain and thick woods at our disposal, our course experts have developed an obstacle circuit that’s monstrous in scope, extreme in design and infused with a family fun atmosphere that our events are known for.
The ERX Extreme 5K will challenge and reward participants of all ages and skill levels. Featuring 18 obstacles, professional timing, a dedicated kidz zone and an after-party.
