Race of Heroes Automatic translate
Quite recently, the all-Russian large-scale project “ Race of Heroes ” was launched, uniting a variety of people with a common goal - to overcome 11 kilometers at any cost. This event was designed on the basis of tests for special forces soldiers and is being held in Russia for the first time. Everyone can test their strength and endurance here, regardless of age, physical fitness, or place of work. A person who decides to take this test challenges himself. Each region of Russia has an individual race scenario, but the conditions are truly combative.
Instead of classic office shoes and clothes, sports sneakers and workwear that do not restrict movement. Moving on their bellies, running, skipping, climbing a rope or walking along narrow logs, the participants pursue their goal - to overcome the cherished number of kilometers, and most importantly - themselves. This is also a great chance to break out of the office routine and unleash the full potential of your body.
The tests presented at the race were developed by a team of professional engineers and instructors. Each participant must overcome this obstacle course.
To get acquainted with the upcoming tests, just go to the main page of the event and find out the information of interest.
Every city has a track with obstacles. These can be trenches with water, sloping fences, high walls surrounded by barbed wire, underground tunnels and imitation of military operations using real tanks and other military equipment. Some tests are carried out under smoke screens and blank shots from machine guns and grenade launchers. Working as a team motivates you to complete the test from start to finish, because stopping means letting everyone down. Going astray will earn you a penalty point. Therefore, abrasions and bruises are not a reason to stop. Having bandaged the injury, you have to continue to fight through the pain.
You can take part in the “Race of Heroes” from April to September. The remaining nuances of the test are individual for each city.
It is important that people with any physical fitness are allowed to participate in the race. But people with chronic diseases of the heart, respiratory system and musculoskeletal system are strongly advised not to sign up to participate in the race.
To register for the race, you need to read the conditions and choose how to participate: alone or with a team, then purchase a ticket and wait for a response.
