HOW TO PREPARE?
Participants should have a well balanced training program, consisting of strength, cardio, and obstacles.
Strength - This is to improve your base strength, and can include equipment such as machines, dumbbells, barbells, other apparatuses. Movements include pull-ups, push-ups, shoulder presses, farmer carry, squats, lunges, etc.
Cardio - A cardiovascular base is crucial as the race will either be a 5k or 15k. Cardio will encompass over half the race, so get your jogging time in. Include various speed, workout times, and distances.
Obstacles - Train on obstacles at obstacle course gyms, or playgrounds if possible. This will ensure you get time on monkey bars, ropes, or cargo nets.
A solid race preparation program should be 8-12 weeks long.
