Adrian Rosales from the Inside Track Club and the “Need a Name” 2025 TE team, sent us this video from the 2019 Tough Enough. I hope this inspires. Thanks Adrian.

A final note. The race will start as usual at 7:00 AM at Toro Canyon (I’ll be posting some Google maps links soon). Registration forms must be signed by each participant and I will have them available at the start. Please come by 6:30 to give us time to get everyone signed in.

EZ Signup and Matchmaking

To make things easier to form teams, there is a separate shared spreadsheet where you can register your team and also put your name on a list in case you don’t have a team.

The spreadsheet is here.

We will be monitoring this spreadsheet. Payment can be made by Venmo as indicated on the spreadsheet and the registration form must be filled out by each participant. You can send us the completed form or hand it in the day of the race.

If you would like to be in a team but don’t have a team yet, there is a second sheet on the document which you can use to get on a list and find other people looking for a team. Feel free to reach out to others on the list and if you make a team, take your name off the matchmaking list and put your names on the team list.

You will NOT be able to participate if we don’t have your signed form.

TE 2025 : April 5

Tough Enough, “the finest relay race in human history,” is back after a two-year forced hiatus. Same course, same spirit, and new directors; Cooper and Jon. We have vowed to keep the tradition: relaxed, idiosyncrasies welcomed with open arms. 

An administrative change. We will be taking PayPal, Venmo, and Zelle. You can email us at info@sb-toughenough.org for the coordinates. If you prefer, regular mail and checks continue to be good. As in the past proceeds will go to Direct Relief, with the exception that this year all race expenses; insurance, swag, etc. is covered; the entire registration fee will be donated to Direct Relief.

The entry form is available here, or to the left under Registration. The number of spots is limited, so sign up soon!

Cooper & Jon

Thank you

Yesterday would have been my last TE as race director. A beautiful day for it, as close to perfect as it could be. I missed it.

Thank you to all of you who created the spirit of the event. My pleasure was seeing the pleasure it gave you.

The poet Seamus Heaney wrote, ‘A promise we had the power to break but never did.’ That’s how I feel.
