Beach Dash
Beach Dash is a 5K obstacle race on a beach that was formerly run by Red Frog Events. The rights to the name and race were sold to an Australian event company because of its failure in the United States. the name is also used by an event in Mustang Island, Texas which also includes longer distances and a children's race. Founding
Beach Dash was launched on November 13, 2010 in Daytona Beach, Florida by Red Frog Events, who also puts on Great Urban Race and Warrior Dash. This first race in the series encouraged Red Frog Events to plan five more races throughout the United States. Locations
