The EPIC Obstacle Run Training Experience

This intensive obstacle course training program is run by the experts over at EPIC Hybrid Training Center. The course is offered 3x a week and ranges from 90-120 minutes long.

*** Signed up for a mud run this summer? Thinking about it? Afraid? At first, most people are scared of the new hit craze- Obstacle Racing- Spartan Race, ToughMudder, Warrior Dash, etc. You haven’t worked out in months or you "think" you're in shape, but maybe you're “just not ready” for the race. The great thing about these races is that they really are for everyone- some people struggle to cross the finish line, while others aim for the win. Whatever your personal goal, our facility is offering the only Certified Reebok Spartan Race training available in NYC. Like the races, this intensive program is meant for all levels. This run is between 3-5 miles. We utilize various full range body movements and plyometric exercises to increase flexibility, strength, and agility using your own body weight (and sometimes others) all along the gorgeous East River. What qualifies us? At the most recent CITIFIELD Spartan race, our coaches Alex Nicholas (sponsored elite Spartan Racer), Brendan Weafer (UFC Fighter) and Julia Falamas (Adventure Health Fitness extraordinaire) led our team of 50 (from investment bankers to bartenders) to 1st place out of 800 other teams.

No one wants to be the one who comes in last out of everyone in the office. Don’t have a team? Join ours. During the most efficient 90-120 minutes of workout you can receive in NYC, we will work together as one- but if you show up to the race with your group of buddies (and leave them in the dust at the finish line) if you pretend not to know who we are- we’ll understand***
