About Red Frog Events
Red Frog produces three race series, Warrior Dash, Great Urban Race (GUR) and Beach Palooza, as well as an innovative registration website, RegistratioNation through ingenuity, creativity and top-notch customer service. Red Frog has pioneered its own industry, saw a 24,000% increase from first year sales, developed a fanatical consumer response and molded a culture as unique as a red frog.
