We ran this list last year for all of the small OCR's (obstacle course races) occurring in 2022. Now we've updated it for 2023! We try to attend local OCRs because they are very fun, typically inexpensive, and frequently very creative with their courses and obstacles. We highly recommend you try some of these events!
Last year, we asked you all to tell us about races we missed on our list. You all did an amazing job, and over the course of about a week after the article was posted we added at least 20 more races to the list. If you know of any small local obstacle course races that have events in 2023 in the USA, that aren't on this list, please comment and tell us; we'll get it added ASAP.
Trio Fitness Training provides top-tier coaching for athletes in obstacle course racing. It doesn't matter what type of event you want to complete; local or big-brand, we can and will help you achieve your goals. View our Training Programs and Sign Up today.
*NOTE* We spent at least 8 hours looking up all these races and making sure they had 2023 events to put this list together. There is an app called OCR Buddy that has an almost exhaustive list of OCR events happening everywhere in the country. It's free to download and we highly recommend you use it because it will save you a ton of time.
