Toronto’s gritty team running challenge is here!
Teams of two will take on a 6-kilometer off-road course, carrying a 20lb shared sandbag.
How It Works
Run it, hike it, swap it, suffer it, but don't drop it! It’s not just a race; it’s about strength, strategy and teamwork.
- Teams of Two: You and your partner share one sandbag for the entire course. Choose from Women's Doubles, Men's Doubles or Mixed Doubles.
- The Dirt Bag: We supply the official 20-lb Dirt Bag (complete with handles).
- The Rules: Carry it any way you like, just don’t drop it. Trade off as often as you want, but the bag must cross the finish line with you.
- Terrain: Expect dirt, roots, and hills. Grip up and embrace the mess.
- Finish Line: Celebrate your shared suffering with post-race pics, recovery, refreshments, bragging rights and prizes for the winners.
