Partner WithThe Crazy.

This is the inaugural event. The brands that show up now are the ones on the banner in year five when this thing is a West Texas institution.

Mineral Wells is the Wellness Capital of Texas, and we are bringing that exact standard to the most grueling endurance event in the state. We aren't looking for vendors to sell trinkets — we are looking for dedicated partners to help our athletes survive.

When runners hit the corral between their 4.167-mile loops, their bodies are entirely depleted. By activating a support presence at our event, you become a crucial part of their recovery. Your brand won't just be a logo on a banner — it will be an integral part of keeping these athletes in the fight.
