Firebreather Challenge, Woodstock

In tales of old, knights would travel miles, climb mountains, and conquer the elements to take down a villager-menacing dragon. Though there's no BTU-spewing beast at the end, the Firebreather Challenge offers plenty of climbing and conquering. A series of obstacles stands in each participant's way, challenging them to leap over hurdles, crawl through the brush, or carry sandbags up a steep hill. Racers even fight against nature during night races, donning headlamps to light their way. Event staff time two of the challenges before determining the final rankings for individuals and teams. In the end, runners meet up with an after party and possibly cool glasses of beer.
