Rules Format/Seeding

Challenge Course

  • Athletes will have the opportunity to run the course once, with two retry attempts allowed throughout their attempt.
  • However, if an athlete fails an obstacle, they will only be allowed to use one retry attempt on that particular obstacle.
  • An athlete’s overall time on the course is measured, accounting for any pauses taken during retry attempts. The course will be reset for each retry attempt, and the timer will be paused during reset. Once the ref gives their countdown (signalling the course is reset) the timer resumes, ensuring a fair and consistent experience for all runners.
  • The course is designed with obstacles that require skill and strategy to navigate, and the challenge is heightened by the limited number of retry attempts.
  • Please see WNL Competition formats for more details.

 

Cash Prizes and Medals

Trophies/medals will be distributed across all divisions. A cash prize will be awared to the male and female elite division winners. Exact amounts will be based on number of athletes registered.

 

Registration

Event cost is £40
Registration closes Dec. 28th!
