FAQ's

How can I register?
You can register your team here. 

How many in a team?
Teams can consist of 2-5 people, and can be your family, friends or work colleagues.

Are there rules?
There is a strict 4-hour time limit starting from your official race time.

Every minute, or part thereof, that you return late will cost you points. For example, being 10 seconds late will lose you points for a full minute; one minute and ten seconds late will cost you for two minutes.

Key rules:

• • • Do not use phones or devices to navigate or search for answers.
    • Wrong answers or guessing will result in penalty points.
    • Filling in answers without visiting checkpoints will lose you points for each false answer and could result in a negative score.
    • Teams must not share answers. You must visit each checkpoint yourselves—answers prove you were there.

Teams can complete the course on foot, by bike, or by vehicle. Each mode competes in its own category to suit different fitness levels, there’s no cross-category competition.

On Foot: Teams must walk, jog, run or use a bus. Children may use scooters or bikes to keep up but must stay with their team and under adult supervision.

If you withdraw early, you must notify Race HQ to prevent emergency services from being called out unnecessarily.

What to bring?

• • • Comfortable clothes suitable for jogging, climbing, crawling, and possibly getting wet.
    • Joggers or other sturdy, comfortable shoes.
    • Spare socks and underwear (consider packing two pairs in case one gets wet or sandy).
    • Bathers if you would prefer your clothes do not get wet
    • A camera (phone is fine, but think about battery life).
    • Sun protection: hat, shirt, sunscreen, sunglasses, etc.
    • One toy character or team mascot (teddy bear, figurine, or something creative).
    • Optional: A team uniform! Coordinate colours, add fun accessories, and stand out together!

What category should I enter?
Car: Use your car (or other vehicle) to reach outlying checkpoints and challenges. Some sections are vehicle-free zones - these must be done on foot (short distances only).

Bicycle: Travel the entire course by bike. All locations are bike-accessible. Bring a lock or ensure someone can watch your bikes during challenges.

Foot: You can only travel on foot or use the Towers Rush bus—no hitchhiking, taxis, or bikes. Some distant challenges will be out of reach, but there’s plenty to do near the main hub. A bus timetable will be provided so plan ahead!

School: For teachers and students representing a school. Teams may travel by car, bike, or foot, and may use a bus or have an adult driver. Students under 16 years of age must be supervised by an adult. There’s a special trophy for the top school - why not encourage multiple teams to boost your school’s chances!

Corporate: For teams representing businesses. Use car, bike, or foot travel. This is a fun team-building experience and a chance to work together outside the usual work setting.
