The Strength Challenge, scheduled for April 26, will take place at MARSOC headquarters at Stone Bay, part of Camp Lejeune, N.C.

Capt. Barry Morris, a MARSOC spokesman, told the Marine Corps Times that participants will be put through “a 10-minute test of physical stamina that includes pull-ups and strength exercises using weighted prowler sleds, according to promotional materials.”

The event is open to the first 100 registrants.
