\n\t\tABOUT US\n\t<\/h1>\n

\n\t\tCREATING LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCES\n\t<\/h3>\n\t

Headquartered in Southern California, Grit OCR is an endurance event organization dedicated to making life-changing\u00a0experiences through challenging endurance events for anyone who is looking to push themselves to the next level of their lives. We are passionate, committed, and creative folks who enjoy being healthy and sharing great experiences together.<\/p>\n\t\t

OUR MISSION<\/h3>\t\t\n\t\t\t

To create great obstacle race experiences that provide runners, athletes, and everyday people with a unique one-of-a-kind experience that challenges and pushes you to dig deep with a bit of suffering to get to that finish line. It is about the journey you go through and how it shapes you to become a better person.\u00a0 It’s also about sharing that journey with others, be it with strangers on the course, friends, or your teammates, pushing and helping each other to get through the challenges and make through to the finish line. You will develop a bond that builds trust, compassion, and grit as you experiencing our races.<\/p>\n

Our commitment is to the people participating in our events. Be it the runners, spectators, support crew, sponsors, or volunteers. Always asking ourselves “How will this impact the experience?”, the outcome has to be positive or we won’t do it. Every touch point is an opportunity to do something great that represents the brand and contributes to making a unique experience. It is never worth it to settle for average when you can lead by example to do it great.<\/p>\n

We strive to make these experiences as seamless as possible so runners can focus on what they do best, run and take on the challenges ahead of them. Seeing the pain, relief,\u00a0and smile on their face as they cross the finish line, that is why we do this. Thank you for being a part of our race experiences.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\"Partnership\"\n\t\t
