Rough Runner is a new breed of obstacle events. The events are inspired by all those game shows we love – Takeshi’s Castle, Wipeout, Gladiator, Ninja Warrior and more. So if you’ve ever wanted to try them out for yourself (we did!), here’s your chance!

The obstacles are unique, bespokely built and designed by the world class engineers who were responsible for the Ferrari building in Yas Island, Abu Dhabi UAE. Designed to test participant’s strength, stamina and agility as they bring together fun and fitness to give you a great sense of achievement... so join the fun, this is for EVERYONE.

Battle it out to get across the finishing line or help each other overcome the obstacles with fun, laughter and teamwork, it's your choice.

The events have full catering, hot and cold food, hot and cold drinks and everyone gets a free beer at the end of the race as a congratulation for finishing! There is also a fully stocked bar!
