Featured several newly built obstacles like a giant 60ft long Monkey bar obstacle, bridges across containers, large rubber buoys to get over, 6ft and 8ft walls, a cargo net pulled across the ground with Ford trucks to name a few to the total of 34+ obstacles.
Simultaneously happening as part of the FitAid General Fitness Competition, a total of 16 teams of 4 from different Gyms around the island participated in the event. Hundreds of Recreational Division entries had combined teams as big as 50 people of all shapes, sizes, and athletic ability. Companies enrolled to use it as a team building and bonding exercise. Families and friends joined together as a team and challenged the course together.

The competitive side of the event featured 40 entries in the Elite Division (Qualifier for the 2020 OCR World Championships + 2020 North American Championships in Vermont) and 22 teams in the 4-Man Team Challenge. (Complete results posted on trenchevents.com)
