The 8th annual Barber Beast on the Bay was Saturday, September 11, 2021, at Presque Isle State Park (USA Today’s ‘Best Pennsylvania Attraction’) in Erie, PA. Participants took on 10 miles of sand, water, and trails – it’s the nature of the Beast!
Participants ran, jumped, climbed and crawled across more than 30 obstacles on the shores of Lake Erie at the biggest obstacle course race in Erie, PA! And while they tackled their own challenges during the Beast, they also helped the children and adults with autism, intellectual disabilities and behavioral health challenges at the Barber National Institute who take on their own obstacles on a daily basis, as the event supports the non-profit and its more than 6,300 individuals.
A one-mile adapted course was also be offered for those ages 12+ with physical or intellectual disabilities at Waldameer, a theme park in Erie, PA next to Presque Isle State Park. The 10-Mile Course and Adapted Course came together for the final obstacles and all participants cross the finish line together!
