2023 Titan 12 Hour Black Ops
The TITAN 12 HOUR BLACK OPS Challenge was conceived for the Warrior who has evolved to crave more. Crossing the finish line is no longer enough. A carnal fire inside doesn’t ask them, but tells them to push the very limit of physicality and mental toughness.
The TITAN 12 HOUR BLACK OPS Challenge is open to athletes of all levels looking for an arena to find that outer limit. To see what can be achieved when they are set loose overnight on a course to conquer the voice that whispers, “never stop.”
