Tulsa, OK 74127
Evan’s Start Time: Friday 1130 AM, August 24, 2018
Evan’s Finish Time: Sunday 1130 AM, August 26, 2018
Participants register for a time block and walk/jog a lap (or more) with Evan on the course of Conquer The Gauntlet Tulsa moving at his pace. This is a non-timed event and 100% of your registration costs go directly to charity. All finishers get a finisher medal and a t-shirt after they finish their lap (or laps). For those that are ambitious and like endurance you are allowed to run as many laps as you want with Evan throughout the course of the weekend (minus normal Conquer The Gauntlet race hours, which require a separate registration).
The goal of Endure The Gauntlet is three fold:
1) Raise $5000 for the charity Folds of Honor. Folds of Honor provides scholarship money for children whose parents were killed or wounded in action in US Military service.
2) Raise awareness and create additional publicity for the sport of Obstacle Course Racing (OCR) through OCR specific and local media channels.
3) A personal challenge.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How can I help out or participate?
There are two ways to help out. If you can’t make it to the event there is an option to donate. Donation options come in two forms. One is directly to the pot of money going to the charity Folds of Honor. The second is donating to Backside Support. Backside Support donations cover things like money spent on t-shirts/medals for participants and travel fees associated with bringing in Evan’s crew/media to support the event. The second way to help out is to participate by clicking on the registration link.
