The Bear Crawl OCR
About this race
The Bear Crawl OCR (Obstacle Course Race) was created to replicate the obstacles and challenges we face in life. Life is hard, and sometimes doing a crazy obstacle course race or mud run can change our perspective on what's possible in our life. The Bear Crawl OCR is a 501 c3 non-profit organization focused on giving back to our local community.
