Overview
OVERLOAD is an obstacle and mud run which you can run on your own or as part of a team.
We have a overload UKOCR trophy Race wave with prizes for 1 st, 2nd and 3rd male and female past the post This wave will be for the runners who like to go as fast as the can and complete every obstacle thrown at them
And we have our Open waves which are more fun waves where the emphasis is on challenging yourself, moving out of your comfort zone and feeling that sense of accomplishment when you cross the finish line.
Each lap is around 5-6km long and you can do as many as you like whilst the course is open
We are a family orientated company and with that in mind, we also put on a family wave where we let children run with adults, all children running will be encouraged to do the same obstacles as the adults but with a little help from mum and dad, and they will receive a unique OVERLOAD medal
OVERLOAD is simply what it says, OVERLOADED with obstacles. You will encounter terrain that will push you to your limits and mud that will suck you in, water to wade through and carries to test you, and we expect them all done with a smile on your face and not to forget over 80% of obstacles can be seen by spectators
And don’t forget you can camp over Friday and Saturday night, for only £10 per person, you will get premium parking right next to the event village, separate utilities to non-campers and easy access to the showers
