ARE YOU APP(UGH)LACHIAN?

Umm, NO.

But you could be.

Are you the type of person who finds the words suffering, crazy, sadistic, and challenging to give you a full on adrenaline rush?

Well then, my friend, App(ugh)lachian you may be.

But not yet.

First you’ve got to earn that title.

Most likely though you’ll just say UGH (na nah na nah) in our races.

You see, for those willing to find out what it takes to be App(ugh)lachian, we have designed races to see if you’re just such.

So do you have what it takes to be App(ugh)lachian?

The answer is still probably no.

But by all means, check out the races, and sign up for one to find out.

Note: Below is a list of those who have been crowned App(ugh)lachian to date. This means that everyone else has DNF’d. Therefore, you’re probably more likely to join the ‘UGH Club’.
