Alan Will, a blind Army veteran, was an inspiration last year when he crossed the finish line with his son. This year, Team Iron Will is doing Beast on the Block this weekend in his memory. Thanks, Erie News Now for sharing this amazing story!

Erie Times-News recognized our founder, Dr. Gertrude A. Barber, as Erie's Woman of the Century. We're so grateful to our amazingly generous donors, we surpassed our Erie Gives goal and then some! The Beast will be back – but with a whole new look for 2020. The region’s largest obstacle challenge has changed to adapt to current safety rules and guidelines while still providing a fun group fitness experience.
