Warrior Dash
OK, I'll be headed to KC for Warrior Dash this weekend! My group runs at 3:00 on Saturday. Is anyone else doing it?

A grueling endurance race became too dangerous in the heat Sunday and had to be called off early.

The Warrior Dash obstacle course was shut down about 1:30 p.m. after 57 people were treated on site for heat symptoms, and four were taken to hospitals as a precaution. The event, which started Saturday, was scheduled to run until 3 p.m. Sunday.

“The heat was so excessive it was not safe for the participants to run,” said race director Bryan Sechrist. “Safety is our No. 1 priority.”

Warrior Dash set up cooling stations and a medical tent for the approximately 7,000 participants today. The event was at Tiffany Springs Park, about 18 miles north of downtown, and involved a 3.1-mile course.

The National Weather Service said the temperature at Kansas City International Airport was 95 degrees at 1:53 p.m., and the relative humidity was 47 percent.
Wow. What weather did they think they were going to have in Kansas City on July 31st? They hold races in Death Valley.

The high humidity is what is making it so miserable.

That is kind of odd when you look at their recent races... New England, Ontario, Washington, Minnesota, KC, Michigan, British Columbia... which one doesn't belong?

Yeah it was hot as hell when we ran at 10:30. Really the hardest part besides the heat was the damn mud after the small creeks. I was sure I was going to wipeout on some of the slopes. Overall I thought the obstacles weren't too hard.

Here's another article that shows his picture. He looks like he's in pretty good shape.

http://www.fox4kc.com/news/wdaf-frie...0,511672.story

It's awful that this happened, but I don't think it's fair to blame Warrior Dash. They had three water stations for a 3 mile race. That's a lot. (The original plan was to only have 2. They added one presumably due to the heat.) They took good care of my diabetic friend who had to be carted off to the first aid tend due to blood sugar issues. I thought the event was very well run.

It is sad that someone died but no one made him participate. The supposed lack of water on the course had little to do with this.

If the people were properly hydrated leading up to the event they would probably have been fine.

Agree 100%. If you were that hot you could have sat down in one of the many streams we crossed and cooled off.

My only complaint was that the water at the aid stations was so hot, you didn't even really want to drink it. But with the multiple waves and the remote locations of the stations, I know the logistics of keeping ice stocked would be really tough.

Hopefully he comes out of it ok.

Yeah, the water at the first station was HOT. I found cool water at the next two places.

I hope this guy is OK.

I ran at 1230 on Sunday, and people were dropping like flies. Saw one broad passed out in the mud. It was so hot I got a headache, and was getting cold chills. Didn't feel right until Monday morning, but in the end I made that course my bitch. About a half hour after finishing, I was going to get a beer and a turkey leg and they shut everything down.
