ROTORUA

It’s on again, the ultimate test of stamina and strategy combined with heaps of fun, the Waikato Draught Tough Guy and Gal Challenge will descend on Rotorua for a sixth year – Saturday 16 August.


This unique off-road running event challenges competitors to tackle two laps of a 6km course containing a variety of natural and man-made obstacles that includes swamp crossings, greasy mud, a crawl under barbwire, a tricky rope climb, water trails, the wobbly wire rope bridge, the Waikato Draught hurdles along with magnificent bush trails and fast open paddocks. A social one lap (6km) option is also available.


Event Director, Murray Fleming of Event Promotions says “There is nothing like it – this event is a great mix of fun and mayhem but provides an exceptional and unique challenge for all competitors.” He adds “the size and success of the event continues to grow with registrations for this years challenge limited to 2100 competitors”.


The 2008 Waikato Draught Tough Guy and Gal Challenge is on Saturday 16 August at the Lakes Ranch complex, just east of Rotorua on SH30 (opposite Hells Gate).
