Route information
This is not your average race. This adventure takes away the comforts you are usually accustomed to in modern life; your phone and your money. So get ready to be blindfolded, "chucked" in the back of a bus and driven into the wild.
With 10, 15 and 30 mile options you really can find the level that suits you. But be warned this isn't going to be easy. Bring your best pair of all-terrain shoes and get ready to cross rivers, roads, moorlands and marshlands.
The rules of the road are:
- No phones
- No money
- No assistance from anybody else (except teammates)
- No map
What's included
- Race entry
- Transport to the start location
