Help Send Us to the Spartan Midwest OCR in Badlands, Indiana on September 26-27, 2026!

Hey everyone — it’s Chris Atkins. Many of you know me as a hybrid athlete, a certified personal trainer, and certified nutrition coach who has spent the last year transforming my body and performance. I’ve walked the talk and walked the walk in the fitness community, completed mud runs, built a consistent training lifestyle, and pushed myself to become the strongest version of who I am — for myself, for my clients, and for the community that supports me.

This September, myself and my teammate will be taking on the Spartan Midwest Obstacle Course Race in Badlands, Indiana — one of the toughest and most iconic OCR events in the region. This race is the next step in my athletic journey, and I’m training hard every day to show up prepared, competitive, and ready to represent everyone who believes in me.

My teammate, Bobbi Jo Breshears, and I will be driving from Boonville, MO, and staying one night in the Badlands. This campaign will be covering all race‑weekend essentials, gear, nutrition, and training‑phase costs. To do this safely and professionally, I’m raising $5,000 (or as close to) to cover:

• Race registration & fees
• Travel & fuel
• One night of lodging
• Food & hydration for race weekend
• OCR shoes, race kit, and performance gear
• Recovery supplies
• Content creation so I can document the journey (I have the equipment)
• Training‑phase support leading up to the event

This fundraiser helps me compete not just as a participant — but as a serious athlete representing my brand, chrisatkins.FITNESS, my clients, and everyone who has been part of my fitness journey.

If you choose to support this endeavor, know that it means the world to me. Every donation, every share, and every message of encouragement help fuel this mission. I’ll be sharing updates, training clips, behind‑the‑scenes content, and a full race‑day recap so you can follow the journey all the way to the finish line.

Thank you for believing in me and helping make this possible. Let’s go conquer the Badlands!
