SIGNING UP A RECREATIONAL TEAM? The team captain will need to register ALL team members at once to save the start time for the whole team. Or, he/she will need to communicate the start time to all team members if they are registering on their own and do so ASAP to not lose a slot. Start Times are first come first serve as it is tied to a limited inventory per start time.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you intend to qualify and participate at the OCRWC in London this year, we highly recommend that you book your flight early and pre-register for the OCRWC NOW before TRENCH CHALLENGE to save your spot. (submission of TC2019 results after qualifying will be required to confirm spot) Due to the proximity of both event dates, the likelihood of an age group selling out is very possible if you wait until September.

TRENCH™ CHALLENGE is the premiere obstacle course race in the western pacific region and the only qualifier to the OCR World Championships (Elite Division only). The 4 mile recreational and 7 mile Elite course is sprawled over the 250 acre property of the Guam International Raceway, offering variations in elevation and scenery changes from desert style terrain, mud pits, motocross dirt track and single canopy rainforest along cliff lines with spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean. With over 24 combinations of manmade and natural obstacles and an average temperature of 81 degrees fahrenheit and relative humidity varying between 60-94%, the climate alone can pose an obstacle for even the fittest athletes.
TRENCH™ CHALLENGE to date has raised over $15,000.00 for Special Olympics Guam, Guam Cancer Care, The Make A Wish Foundation, and other organizations.
