Tough Runner is designed for children and young people aged approximately 4 to 14 years, and can be adapted for a wide range of groups and abilities.

Whether it’s a primary school event, a youth club activity, or a team challenge, we tailor the course difficulty and setup to suit the ages and needs of your participants.

Safety is our top priority. All our courses are designed with children's safety in mind and are supervised by experienced and trained staff. We conduct thorough risk assessments before every event, and all activities are carefully monitored throughout the day. Additionally, our equipment is regularly inspected and maintained to the highest standards.

You will need a grass field for this activity - We can adapt the Tough Runner course to fit a variety of spaces — large or small.

Ideally, we need a flat, open area such as a school field, club ground, or community park, but our team will work with you to make the most of whatever space you have available. We can adjust the layout and obstacle selection to suit your location and group size.

A Tough Runner event runs for a full day, with our team setting up, delivering, and packing down the course on site.

For larger schools, clubs, or organisations, the event can run across multiple days to ensure every participant gets a complete Tough Runner experience. We’ll work with you to plan a schedule that best fits your group size and requirements.

Participants should wear comfortable, weather-appropriate sports clothing and trainers suitable for running and getting a little muddy. We recommend avoiding football boots or shoes with studs.

A change of clothes is a good idea, especially if the course includes wet or muddy obstacles.

For schools, clubs, and youth groups, we suggest bringing spare socks, a towel, and plastic bags for muddy kit — just in case!

Yes — every booking receives a comprehensive pre-event pack with all the details you’ll need, including what to expect, how to prepare participants, and any specific requirements for the day.

The pack also includes risk assessments and safety guidelines to ensure everything runs smoothly.

For schools, clubs, and youth organisations, we also provide interactive resources and activity plans designed to build excitement, teamwork, and resilience in the lead-up to your Tough Runner event.

Absolutely! Parents and carers are always welcome to come along and cheer on the participants.
