hey,

last week i competed in the wild thing finishing 4th, i really enjoyed day/morning, but what i was wondering do any of you guys know if they do more of these races? or are they really just few and far between, i would like to be including these in and about my other races as i feel they help!

also do you guys see these as proper races or bits of fun? i have to say it was one of the harder things i have done and was happy (to a degree) to finish 40 odd seconds of the winner!

What is the 'Wild Thing?' Is it an off road adventure race?

If so, check out Grim Challenge , Survival Of The Fittest Hell Runner and Wolf Run

Hi Samchat, I did the Whole Hog (http://www.eightpointtwo.co.uk/) last month and loved it, such a tough challenge mentally as well as physically but I loved it and have been looking for more so I'm glad and greatful that you opened this thread. I have signed up for www.toughmudder.com on May 12th, looks like the toughest of the lot. http://www.humanrace.co.uk/ organise lots of similar events. You also have www.brutalrun.co.uk and www.spartanrace.com

I'm planning on the KPEvents Xtreme Challenge on Feb 5th at Catton Hall as my introduction to Assault Course/Adventure racing. It seems to be much cheaper than the others at only £14 and have had good reviews of last years! Xtreme Challenge
