Choose your challenge: a 15-mile or 10-mile journey, solo or in a team.

How it Works:

  • Registration: Hand over all electronic devices, watches, navigational aids. In return, you’ll receive a race number and an emergency bag.
  • The Journey Begins: Board the bus, don blackout blindfold (or an alternative if needed), and prepare to be driven to an undisclosed drop-off location.
  • The Challenge: From there, you’ll need to find your way back to the event centre. The distance is measured as the crow flies.
