Hey Everyone! We are very sad to announce that unfortunately we are canceling the Pi-K for this year.

We still have 3 other races coming up this year, and this is going to allow us time to really focus on making them amazing.

For those who signed up, you will get full refunds. Or, if you would rather change your registration to another of our races, you are welcome to do that as well.

We sent an email out, so look for that.
Thanks for the support, and we will see you in May for the near death race.

Tough Tuesday (a little late) has perhaps broken the barrier to a new level of toughness. In 2020 he bear crawled a marathon (26.2 miles) through the urban jungle of New York City to raise awareness and money to support mental health.
His next venture is to summit the highest point on every continent! The man is tough in some incredible ways!

Tough Tuesday - Let’s imagine for a second that you’ve got a baby growing inside you. You decide that you want to keep running and training throughout your pregnancy. Well, now you are 9 months pregnant and you’re scheduled to give birth in a week, do you keep on training? If you are local Utah legend Makenna Myler you do. AT 9 MONTHS PREGNANT Makenna ran a 5:25 mile. Read that again. Makenna ran a 5:25 mile at 9 months pregnant. This isn’t Makenna’s only accomplishment. She ran all four years of college, qualified for the Olympic trials in the 10k, signed a contract to run professionally for , and beat the Deseret News Half Marathon Women’s record. you’re inspiring and tough!

Tough Tuesday - White water kayaking just became our new favorite sport that we’ve never tried. If you haven’t had the chance to watch “The River Runner” (streaming on Netflix), you’re really missing out. This documentary tells the story of Scott Lindgren and some of his daring adventures in white water kayaking. We won’t spoil it for you, but Scott attempts to be the first person to paddle the four great rivers that emanate from Tibet’s sacred Mount Kailash. Along this journey Scott faces many challenges that’d you’d have to see to believe. If we had to rate Mr. Lindgren’s toughness like a white water rapid we’d say he’s a Class 5+. He’s tough. Now, go watch his documentary to see what we’re talking about.

Tough Tuesday - If you know the name Susan Butcher then you just might know something about the Iditarod. This roughly 1000 mile race from Anchorage, Alaska to Nome, Alaska is no joke. In 1986 Susan Butcher and her team of 14 dogs won this annual sled dog race. Susan was the second woman to be crowned champion of this insane feat. She didn’t stop there. In 1987, 1988 and 1990 she also took home first place. Sadly, Susan passed in 2006 from leukemia, but her impact in the sport of sled dog racing lives on today. In an interview with the New York Times Susan’s husband had the following to say about her:

“She was the first woman ever to dominate and be the best in the world at a sport where men and women compete equally, and the men did not like that.”

Susan, you’re tough.

Tough Tuesday Shoutout goes to Utah local

If you’ve ever met Marcus you know he’s a force to be reckoned with. He’s a soon to be accountant, 2:35 marathon runner, and a man with an insane amount of grit and determination. We met Marcus at our very first event, “The Near Death Race” and we’ve had the pleasure of remaining in contact with him since. A couple weeks ago, the Radical Race founders (Chris and Adam) asked if he’d like to tag along for a little 300 mile bike ride from Provo, UT to St. George, UT. He accepted. Up to this point, the furthest Marcus had ever ridden a bike was about 20 miles. But if you had been along for this ride you would have thought this guy was a competitor in the Tour de France. The man led the charge up some of the windiest passes of the route and impressed everyone in the group.

With little to almost no training this man accomplished this huge feat. Marcus, you’re tough.

Have you done anything tough? Do you know someone who has? DM us and let us know

Tough Tuesday came a little late this week.

Courtney Dauwalter needs no introduction, but in case you live under a rock. She is thought by many to be the GOAT of ultra running. She is known for shattering course records, and has achieved so many amazing accomplishments among which is the world record for the longest distance ever run by a female runner: 283.3 miles. She also received the George Mallory Award for pushing the boundaries of human achievement.
She is a living legend, and absolutely one of the toughest people on the planet.
