Vibram’s partnership with “extreme” obstacle race series to continue
08/04/2015
Warrior Dash challenges more than half a million participants annually in North America to 5K races through rough terrain and “extreme obstacles”.
During the 2015 Warrior Dash series, Vibram will be on-site at events across North America with a Vibram Shoe Wash and Exchange, a mobile washing machine station that will provide competitors with a chance to clean the mud off of their shoes after completing the race. Participants will also have the opportunity to try out a pair of washable Vibram FiveFingers Spyridon MR (Mud Run) shoes.
In addition, the company will give people who purchase a pair of the Vibram FiveFingers Spyridon MR online in 2015 will have the opportunity to take part in a Warrior Dash race of their choice free of charge and will support the Warrior Dash’s cancer charity initiative to raise funds for the St Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis.
“Vibram FiveFingers is the perfect shoe for competitors to use on the Warrior Dash course due to its versatile design that allows runners to navigate the challenging wet, dry and muddy terrain and obstacles,” said Allon Cohne, chief marketing officer of Vibram.
