General Rules and AthleteConduct1)It is the responsibility of each racer to know and understand the rules for the event and for each specificobstacle. If you do not understand a specific rule it is up to you to ask the race director or volunteer at theobstacle before attempting to complete it.2) Any verbal or written race day instructions given in pre race emails, pre race briefings, or by volunteersand/or race marshals will supersede rules in this book.3) Unless otherwise noted in the following rule book, during pre-race instructions, or by the specificvolunteer at an obstacle, all racers are given one attempt to complete each obstacle. What defines “anattempt” is outlined within the race specific rules that follow. However, typically once both feet have left theground you will be considered committed to that obstacle and must complete it or take the penalty.4) In the event that a racer attempts but is unable to complete an obstacle, a penalty must be completedbefore the racer may proceed on course. The standard penalty is 30 burpees. If a racer miscounts a burpeepenalty (or completes an improper burpee), a 30 second penalty per missed burpee will be added to theracer’s time. If a racer completes fewer than 20 burpees, the penalty is disqualification. The racer is solelyresponsible for counting his/her own burpees, and should not trust/rely on others, including volunteers, tocount for them.
