Tag points are common in obstacle course racing and are points that require some type of action before moving forward. It can be a simple tag (touching the point with your hand) or it can be that you pick up a marker or have to hop on your left foot six times or a combination of activities. Tag points can be something official like a bean bag or flag, or they can be whatever you have handy or is naturally part of your course like a good size rock, a tree, a fence, a pole - use your imagination.
