The venue features varied, mostly off-road terrain with mud, multiple creeks, and a mix of natural and constructed obstacles rather than long, steep climbs. The weekend is hosted by Explore Cabarrus. The event page shows a 4.7 rating from 51 racer testimonials.
Finishers receive event-specific items for certain races. Sprint participants receive a Sprint finisher medal and a finisher tee.
