Participants will be scored on the compulsory events only but have to participate in five events to qualify for the Big5 Challenge.
This one-of-a-kind challenge will not only challenge you beyond your comfort zone, but also brings with it plenty of other benefits. All participants will receive a 10% discount on race entry fees as well as discount vouchers for certain restaurants, activities and shops in town for the duration of the festival.
