Join us for event number two of our year of celebration for an obstacle course run to truly test yourself. Now home to 33 & 35 Engineer Regiment (EOD&S) this former RAF airfield used in the Battle of Britain is still an active military site used for training exercises. We will have a number of inflatable and static obstacles to navigate progressing in difficulty as the course continues in the ultimate test in physical and mental fitness. Register now and show us what you’re made of!
