Run the Ridge

Q: When and where do I run?
A:  You run anytime and anywhere you would like.  Run as many miles each day as you would like.  The only rule here is log your miles in order to earn your finisher medal.  You may start your tour of the Blue Ridge Parkway anytime between April 1st - August 1st Trail miles, road miles, treadmill miles all count.  The miles you earn each day walking from your beer fridge to your couch don't count!  Only count the miles when you actually are out exercising!  

Q: Will there be beer at the finish line?
A: Absolutely!  BYOB!  

Q: Can we have a relay team?
A: This is an individual event, but you will earn credit in the Live Full Send Store to buy gear when your friends and family register using your referral code. 

Have enough T-shirts to last a lifetime?  Or maybe you can't have enough great T-shirts?  We realize every participant is unique and different and instead of including a T-shirt with your registration we have lowered our registration fee and given you the option to pick your swag.  T-shirts, Tanks,  Pint glasses, Beach Towels.  Add on as much or as little swag as you would like during registration.  This is just a small sample of the options you have to pick from during registration. 

We will be shipping swag throughout the summer.  All participants will receive their medal and swag by Labor Day. 

We know exercising with friends is always more fun!  Gather your friends and and family to form a team!  Share your referral link and earn swag bucks to spend in the Live Full Send Store.  

We love Kiddos and Fur Babies and would love for them to join us for RunOBX.  All Kids and Fur Babies under the age of 12 can register for $25.  Discount automatically taken at checkout.  If your puppy is over 12...no worries...just adjust their age accordingly.   Fur Babies will get a dog award instead of a medal.  If you are registering a fur baby please put Dog/Cat/Hamster etc. as a part of your animal's name.  Ex.  Maverick (Dog) Griffin.

What is FULL SEND?  FULL SEND is a Lifestyle - it is an attitude.  FULL SEND is 110% Committed. All Out. No Take Backs. No Do Overs. Full Send is an active lifestyle and apparel brand.  We believe in being fully committed and engaged in all we do. Full Send Racing was founded in May 2020 by Chad Towne and Renee Griffin.  While the racing industry was being closed down as a result of Covid 19, Chad and Renee figured out how to weave together their experience in the race industry, passion for endurance sports and desire to help non profits to create FULL SEND RACING. We work hard and we play hard and we take this same attitude in every event and every piece of apparel we create.

RACE FULL SEND - Chad and Renee are both endurance athletes who have a background in race event timing and production.   Our goal was to take the things we valued most in the endurance industry and bring them to our athletes.    In our first six months as a company we have worked with over 10,000 athletes and we recognize each athlete comes to the start line with different skills,  talents, experience and goals.  Our job is to provide each athlete with the highest quality experience and motivate you to move out of the comfort of the start line, push through the miles of the race (no matter the distance) and celebrate you at the finish line.   Check out all our events at Race Full Send

LIVE FULL SEND -  Chad and Renee believe that your accomplishments should be celebrated with the highest quality gear.  We work closely with our athletes and clients to thoughtfully create gear through the lens of function, style and practicality.   All apparel is designed and printed by small businesses in Wilmington NC. 

GIVE FULL SEND - One of the driving forces behind Full Send Racing is to make a positive difference in our community.   Since the creation of Full Send Racing in May 2020 we have been fortunate to work with 13 nonprofits,  We have helped these nonprofits raise over $110,000.   For our current projects check out Give Full Send.
