5 Common Side Effects of Savage Race
Savage Race gives you the opportunity to conquer the world’s best obstacles and experience the thrill of a lifetime. It’s a chance to get outside of your everyday routine and do something way (way!) outside of your comfort zone.
Whether you’re planning to run in your very first event later this year, or you’ve been with us since the very beginning, there are five common side effects that you’ll always bring home from Savage Race.
Savage Race Announces New SavagePRO Masters Division
Beginning August 22nd at Savage Race Chicago, there will be a new Masters Division for SavagePRO athletes age 40+. The top three males and top three females in the 40+ age group will receive Masters Division 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place overall awards.
Masters are SavagePRO athletes that may not be able to compete with the Ryan Atkins or Yuri Forces of the world, but can certainly compete at their age level. This new division will recognize these athletes and give them awards for their achievements.
There are no cash prizes for Masters Division overall award winners, but they will receive 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place overall medals and MAJOR bragging rights.
Conquering Colossus – 20 Epic Insider Photos
Colossus.
43 feet tall. Muddy. Slippery. Intense. Very intense.
When you approach, your first thought is, “whoa, that’s big!” and your second is, “how in the world am I going to do this?”
A crowd gathers around to watch as you take a deep breath and try and slow your racing heart. You scout out the lane that you think will work best for you. Which one is the least muddy? Which rope looks the longest? Are the knots in the right place? How many people are waiting at the top to help me up and over?
You take one more breath and sprint towards the massive obstacle. One foot slips, but you regain traction. You run forward and up, then go airborne as you lunge for the rope. The person next to you misses their rope and slides back down to the bottom, resting a moment in the mud before trying again. You cling on for dear life and try to get your footing.
Truly Savage: Brave Team of Blind Racers Inspire Us All
A group of wet, muddy, tired athletes triumphantly entered the festival area after completing Savage Race Maryland.
Every staff member began cheering. A couple of us may have had tears in our eyes.
It didn’t matter that this group of brave athletes finished after many others had already picked up and gone home. The smiles on their faces said it all – they did it!
Ben, CJ, Daron, Devonte, Nasim, Shawn, and Taiye completed miles of rugged terrain and dozens of challenging obstacles… that they couldn’t even see.

Hey Savages! It’s race week in Ohio and we’re excited! While we’re busy putting the finishing touches on our course, we know you’re busy preparing – physically and mentally – for your next obstacle course race.
There are many reasons people decide to participate in a mud run. For some, it’s an opportunity to support a team or rally around a cause. For others, it’s a way to commemorate a significant event in their lives or honor a loved one. And some people just want to push their physical and mental boundaries by challenging themselves on the course.
