The course and obstacles will involve travelling through mud, bog and water in wild and natural environments, there is an inherent risk of mud or water borne infection, we strongly recommend you keep your head out of the mud and bog areas and wash your hands with soap and water before eating and drinking – There are hand wash stations at the water station and at the finish line.
The venue is often windy and exposed, there is very limited marquee space - Be ready for anything!

Disabled Access
The event base area is on flat cut grass that may be soft depending on previous weather. Disabled parking is on grass close to the event base. Some obstacles will be accessible for viewing if you have limited mobility. Disabled toilets are provided. Please contact us if you have specific questions.
Food
There’s a feast after the Beast! Available to purchase is a fine selection of hot food and real coffee. Please bring cash as the data connection doesn't allow for easy card payments!
Children
Feel free to bring your family, there is some great spectating to be had! However, for their own safety you must not allow children access onto the course or obstacles at anytime before, during or after the race.
Dogs
Sorry, please leave the dogs at home. The Beast Race locations are situated on sporting/event facilities and the venue owners kindly asked that no dogs are permitted onsite. The event base will be a very busy area with loud music.
