THE COURSE for the ReALLIEty Challenge

COURSE DESCRIPTION
A series of challenging obstacles will allow ReALLIEty Challenge participants to be a warrior for a day or to run on behalf of a special warrior. Our "War Zone" covers 3.5 miles of unique Louisiana terrain designed to parallel military training conditions, including running, crawling, jumping, hanging and balancing elements and obstacles. To the 'victors go the spoils' so, for those who conquer the obstacles and survive the final challenge of "Hurricane Allie" there will be a celebration of great music, food and beverage.

OBSTACLES DESCRIPTIONS (Tentative)

1) THE GREAT WALL:  The first obstacle is a mix of the Marine Corp confidence course and the Navy Seal challenge course. It will test your upper body strength all the way to the end. The walls never seem to stop and they get taller each time.

2) BALANCE BABY BALANCE:  Obstacle number 2 is a simple balance test. You must make it through the entire length without falling off. If you fall off you must return to the beginning and start the obstacle over.

3) IN THE TRENCHES:  Number three is the never ending trench. Logs positioned across this ditch force you to move over and under never allowing you to get very far without ducking or climbing.

4) WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE:  Number four is a maze through the lost forest. This obstacle can be rather tricky. Each participant must make the right decision to find the way out. If not, it will feel like you are just going around in a circle.

5) TIGHT SQUEEZE:  Number five is going to be a tight fit. The openings are narrow and some of them will require you to hold your breathe.

6) THE DARK WHOLE:  Number 6 is going to be easy, the problem is that you will not be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Just keep moving forward, the water is not deep.

7) SPIDER MAN:  Number 7 will remind you of a spider web. It will take patience to find the easiest way though the web. The web is tight and will be tough as it captures more and more victims.

8) UP AND OVER: Number 8 is an up and over obstacle. The hay has cracks that seem to just pull you in. With all the rounded corners, there is not much to grab onto as you maneuver up and down.

9) THE BIG PIT: At Number 9 you will need to have some speed built up to help you make it over the pit. There is not enough rope so you will have to jump for it.

10) SWINGING NET - Number 10 is the net challenge. It will take coordination and strength to negotiate the net. As more people get on the net, the more it will swing. Don't forget to hang on tight.

11) SWAMP PEOPLE: Number 11 is the swamp crossing. There will be floating challenges that will have to be crossed. They will not want to let you pass, you could go under if you can hold your breathe that long.

12) HURRICANE ALLIE:  Obstacle 12 is our rainy challenge.  Hurricane Allie
 will deliver more rain than any hurricane in history. Can you make it through the storm?

13) MUDDY BUDDY:  Number 13 is on the home stretch, and what adventure race could be complete without a mud pit with a rian shower at the end.

Good luck!!!
