  • The Legal Implications of Obstacle Racing and Suggested Risk Management Strategies
    Journal of Legal Aspects of Sport, 2014, 24, 78-95 Official Journal of SRLA http://dx.doi.org/10.1123/jlas.2014-0002 www.JLAS-Journal.com © 2014 Sport and Recreation Law Association CASE STUDY The Legal Implications of Obstacle Racing and Suggested Risk Management Strategies Margaret C. Keiper, Sarah Young, Gil Fried, and Todd Seidler This article applies legal theory, case law, and suggested risk management strategies to obstacle events and racing. The history, popularity, and exponential growth of the obstacle racing industry are explored. Trends in the obstacle racing industry are also examined and legal implications that may follow the trends are discussed. Case law, in a variety of scenarios, is used to explain and apply assumption of risk and duty of care to obstacle racing events. Finally, suggested risk management strategies for race organizers are recommended. Course design, medical staffing, waivers, and proper staff training are all discussed. Imagine spending your Saturday morning running up a muddy incline being sprayed from both sides with high-pressure fire hoses, then plunging into opaque, frigid water brimming with ice to slog your way 25–30 feet, and, finally, running through a trench of blazing kerosene-soaked straw with 4-foot high flames! This is a description of just a few of the obstacles that can be found in obstacle racing or challenge events currently sweeping the nation. Since 2010, it is estimated that more than 3 million people have competed in obstacle course racing which Outside Magazine speculated is more than twice the number of people finishing marathons during the same time span (Obstacle racing, 2013).

  • Obstacles for Insurers of Obstacle Course Racing - Milliman Insight
    7/27/2018 Obstacles for insurers of obstacle course racing - Milliman Insight Obstacles for insurers of obstacle course racing By Jenna Hildebrandt, Michael A. Henk | 02 August 2017 Jumping through a blazing fire, climbing 15-foot walls, and running through high-voltage electrical wires sounds like something out of an action movie, but these dangerous activities are “just another weekend” in the world of obstacle course races. Obstacle course racing (OCR) is currently sweeping the fitness and entertainment world alike with television shows like American Ninja Warrior and Spartan entrenched in prime-time slots. OCR initially gained popularity after a push to add excitement and adventure to traditional footraces in efforts to revitalize the “running industry.” Gone are the days of shutting down a few city blocks to host the local 5K. Instead, large venues are rented out to build extreme obstacles to challenge those who dare to enter. However, with more adventure comes more risk, which is leaving the insurance industry facing obstacles of its own. Without the reliability of historical data, consistency of events, and general safety seen in traditional footraces, insurers need to adjust to the growing and changing exposures. Originally inspired by military training, the combination of tough obstacles and traditional footraces has captured the attention of millions. According to the Insurance Journal, 4.5 million people finished obstacle course races in 2015.1 To put that in perspective, 1.99 million people ran half marathons and 509,000 people ran full marathons in 2015.2 The running industry (including OCR) is estimated at $1.4 billion according to Fortune.3 Currently, with OCR making up such a large percentage of the races, the risk facing the organizers of these events is becoming more prevalent.

    Adventure Racing CORE A Nontraditional Approach to the Physical Education Lesson DAN DEJAGER More than an obstacle course, this unit combines fi tness activities with cognitive and affective elements to create a unique experience. ’ll do 15, if you each do fi ve,” Bailey tells her two teammates as they run to the push-up station. The team drops to the ground and into position when they reach Brandon, a fellow student who is acting as judge for the push-up station in today’s race. They count out their push-ups, while making sure to“I keep good form. “Good job, Bailey!” Britney compliments her teammate as Bailey fi nishes the fi nal push-ups. Soon the team fi nishes their 25 push-ups, completing the obstacle. Bailey pops up, and the team runs together around the course, eager to move on to the next challenge. Other teams like Bailey’s participate in a variety of activities as they make their way around the circuit in an attempt to complete the cooperative obstacle racing experi- ence. A few teams are jumping rope, trying to complete 50 jumps before they can move on with the race, and a couple of other teams are doing sit-ups with medicine balls, aiming to fi nish 30. At the question station, students attempt to fi nd the solution to a math problem that involves knowing the last names of all four of the physical educa- tion teachers at the school. All around the track, students are rushing from obstacle to obstacle, running—not walking—to try to fi nish the mile-long race.

Our research addresses this limitation through the ethnography of a popular obstacle challenge. Our findings contribute three new insights. First, pain renders the body especially difficult to ignore. Pain enables the reappearance of the body for individuals who feel modern office work has made their bodies redundant. Second, pain enables a temporary erasure of the self.

Accurately measured traditional foot racing has been in existence since the 1600s (“Running History Story”). Much more recently, in 1990, obstacle racing originated and brought change to the racing industry (“The History of Obstacle Races”). As a result, this study investigated the two different cultures of traditional foot racing and obstacle racing, and what the introduction of obstacle racing means for racing
