Eco-X is back again for 2015 with our popular Adventure Run races, which will be held on Sunday 14th June!
There will be individual and team categories, meaning you can race for individual glory or you can compete in a team of 3 . For team races the team time will be based on each team’s overall finish time.
These races are non-technical, there’s no rock climbing / abseiling, high ropes or navigation skills and no roller blading skills required, meaning you don’t have to be a seasoned adventure racer to take part. You can expect to be climbing over obstacles, crawling through mud, crossing rivers, scrambling up / down hills and crawling through caves.
Don’t be fooled though, these races will be just as challenging! These courses have been designed to physically test even the best athletes. Our different distances offer different levels of challenge allowing you to choose how hardcore you are!
Simply follow the off-road trails laid for you, and tackle the obstacles in your way, cross rivers and lakes, crawl through mud, and you might even find yourself in the darkness!
Our Adventure Run features a number of man made obstacles and some natural challenges between you and the finish line. Here’s an idea of some of what you can expect to face:
