Hercoileán

Hercoileán is a military style challenge course, 7.5km in distance. Think military bootcamp meets childhood fantasy of taking on the world and getting pretty messed up doing so. This style of event has become all the rage and it’s time that we in the island take it on!! Competitors will be faced with a variety of obstacles as they make their way around the course. Obstacles will test the body and

mind but while doing so are sure to make you laugh out loud and leave you with a feel good factor!! It is sure to be a truly unique event and makes a great change from the regular 5 or 10k runs. Hercoileán can be competed or just completed with teams and individuals having the option of taking on the clock or putting aside the competitive aspect for the sake of simply having the craic…..also very important!! Teamwork: It’s true, strength comes in numbers, usually anyway!! Hercoileán can be done as an individual test but we recommend that you partake as part of a team!! It will mean tackling each and every obstacle together as well as having someone to curse your way around the course with!! Once completed, it’s the perfect excuse to get together for a celebration of your athleticism, toughness and heroism on the day….or simply a time to revel in your combined ability to look ridiculous whilst overcoming obstacles.
