Think you have what it takes to train like a Navy SEAL? Prove your strength this summer at the BattleFrog Obstacle Race Series, designed and operated by current and former Navy SEALs.

 

The traveling race series offers fitness enthusiasts courses for a variety of skill levels, ranging from the challenging standard course measuring eight kilometers with more than 22 different obstacles to the hardcore BattleFrog Xtreme, challenging racers to run as many laps of the standard course as their motivation and muscle can stand.

 

Upcoming events are taking place in major regions across the United States this year and next, including the tri-state area, New England, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Greater Chicago, Austin, Miami, Florida and Houston.

 

 

Not only are the events challenging and fun, they’re also charitable, supporting The Navy SEAL Foundation, The Navy SEAL Museum and The Trident House.

 

In addition to a killer sense of accomplishment, race entry fees include a custom BattleFrog medal, a BattleFrog t-shirt, a race bib and a timing chip.

 

On the day of the event, spectators and racers both have a chance to celebrate and take a close-up look at Naval Special Warfare artifacts and equipment from The Navy SEAL Museum. They also have the chance to chat with real Navy SEALs about what it takes to run the best BattleFrog race possible.
