Description
What is BRUTAL?
Welcome to home of the BRUTAL, off road challenges across the toughest courses in the country. No gimmicky flames and barbed wire or fake ice cubes and hay bales, just the hardest routes across the wildest of countryside.
Our BRUTAL run courses are designed by British Army officers. These running experts know what you're looking for and each BRUTAL run route delivers a gentle blend of hard running and tough racing. All in all, the BRUTAL series of runs are great fun for all abilities – always safety tested on the morning before the race even if only to break the ice for you.
COURSE
A flatish area with a very fast run out into the dry Zig Zag Gully with lots of turns, down to the little switch back hill and onto the mud trail, into the Lily Pond and then a succession of 3 (or is it 4) short hills. Onto the flat and very rough elephant grass into the shallow river and then into Fart Bog (phew) back into the river ankle deep and then into a linear marsh (which gets deeper as the race progresses). Head for the arena back onto the next lap and enjoy the course all over again.
