GroundHog Events present The Hades Team Challenge
The Hades Challenge is a team endurance event, NOT a race. Based on tactical and military style training, your team is led start to finish by a Special guest Cadre. His/her job is to test your limits, push you past them, and forge your squad into ONE team.
TOP REASONS TO TAKE ON THIS COURSE:
1. All finishers get an EPIC themed medal and t-shirt
2. Committing to this challenge will keep you motivated to train and stay in shape. Get motivation to avoid temptation — don’t throw your lifestyle of healthy eating and consistent training to the wind over the summer season.
3. Test your limits, push you past them, and forge your squad into ONE team
Event Details:
There are no cash prizes or awards at the end of your journey. You will however EARN a finishers medal, shirt, and the respect of everyone on your team. (Avg. completion rate 90%) Your wit and strength will be tested like never before but rest assured you will be rewarded once you complete this challenge!
Your welcome to sign up individually or sign up together as a team and everyone will be assigned to a squad on event day based upon the total number of participants.
*All participants are required to bring dry weight in their rucksack aka backpack based upon their weight on event day.
