Only the Brave - Charity Obstacle Course Race (OCR)

Join us at Only The Brave and take on the exciting 3, 6 or 10 mile mud obstacle course! Inspired by EAAA pilots, doctors, paramedics, patients and their families. They amaze us when they overcome physical and emotional obstacles every day. They tell us it’s ‘not the obstacles you face, but the way you deal with them’ that counts. Participants will need the same mentality to complete the course.

Braver: 6 mile (10km) mud race

Great for groups, our 6 mile obstacle course race includes 26 obstacles from monkey bars to test your endurance and grip strength, to giant slip and slide style descents. Although challenging, all of our obstacles are achievable, and if you're uncomfortable with any of them, it's perfectly fine for you to just run past. (Full price £50)

Bravest: 10 mile (16km) mud challenge

For fans of longer runs and more obstacles, our 10 mile route offers even more, with 35 obstacles. While you'll share a starting line with the 6 milers, the 10 mile route will push you further and harder, testing your muscular endurance and resistance. (Full price £60)
