Kent's military obstacle course race Survival2 returns to Betteshanger Park in Deal for 2018

Think you can survive more than 70 obstacles while wading through mud?

Then you're up for the challenge of Survival2: Kent’s military obstacle course race, which is returning to Betteshanger Park in Deal for a second year.

This year organisers at the park and MY/PT have added 4km to the race, more obstacles - and some surprise obstacles.

Competitors will have to run, jump, swing, wade, crawl, ride and haul their bodies through a series of brutal obstacles on Saturday, October 6.

New this year is Survival Elite for hard core OCR runners, allowing unlimited access to the course, and Survival Junior, a 2.5km route for fearless eight to 15-year-olds.

The endurance event will challenge competitors’ mental and physical ability, give some serious outdoor fun and there's a medal at the end.

Director of MY/PT, Jay Ingram, said: “We learnt a lot from our first event and have taken time to review the feedback. 2018 is going to be epic! We’re promising competitors a load more mud, plenty more obstacles and a more challenging course than ever before.”

Richard Morsley, park director, added: “Survival2 is for anyone who has a sense of adventure and a strong determination. Everyone will get wet, muddy and covered in coal spoil but we guarantee everyone will have a smile on their face when they cross the finish line.”
