Gameface will shoot all of Rugged Maniac’s 2013 races, providing participants with free, high-resolution photos of themselves in mettle-testing events such as climbing 20-foot high walls, sliding down a 100-foot water slide, jumping over fire and crawling through tunnels of mud.

Gameface Media photographers will attend all Rugged Maniac races, capturing images of participants overcoming the course’s 20-plus obstacles to complete the race. Once the photos are tagged according to bib number, Rugged Maniac will notify participants that their free, high-quality race photos are ready for viewing, downloading, and social media sharing. Because bib numbers are often obscured by mud, participants will also be able to browse by time and obstacle to find every photo shot of them during the event.
“We can’t imagine a better first major opportunity for our company than to work with the Rugged Maniac team,†Gameface Media CEO and co-founder David Lavallee said. “Rugged Maniac runs safe, exciting races with challenges that create spectacular photo opportunities for participants.â€
