SIGNUPSTRONG began in 2013 when our Founder signed up for a 15 mile mud run. Sixty pounds overweight and with no training, he still showed up on race day. For the 6 hours that followed he would never move quicker than a slow walk. He skipped obstacles, cut corners and had complete disregard for the rules. He could not keep pace with even the slowest participant and he had no desire to accomplish anything even remotely noteworthy.

​

As fate would have it, that night our Founder celebrated his mediocrity while wearing the exact same "finisher headband" as the elite athletes whom finished hours before him. Any guilt our Founder had from the obstacles he skipped was dulled by alcohol; a false sense of accomplishment slowly took over. A dozen IPA's later, our Founder felt invincible and could not wait to SIGNUPSTRONG for his next event. He was hooked... on signing up. And so, a new race standard was born.



Now, some 5 years later, our Founder has signed up for over 15 races all across the East Coast and continues to face them all with the same indifference as his first. And while many argue he has yet to respectfully finish even one of these races, his closet is filled with half marathon medallions and orange headbands that would suggest otherwise. The one thing we can all agree on: He keeps signing up, strongly.

Welcome to SIGNUPSTRONG. We are happy you stopped by and hope you like our mediocre website. Please buy a T-Shirt while you are here and all proceeds will be going toward the entry fee of our Founder's next race. If nothing else, we hope our site encourages you to SIGNUPSTRONG for your next event. Just remember one thing: signing up can be the toughest part if you want it to be.

Signup for races. Do them... or don’t. Doesn't really matter.
