7KM - FLAMEHUNTERS TEAM
Burn as One
Flamehunters is the ultimate team-based OCR challenge. Designed for those who want to take on the course together, this 7km race is all about collaboration, problem solving and shared grit.
Racing in teams of three, you’ll tackle a course based on the Fireball OCR, featuring over 25 obstacles plus added team-specific challenges. The route blends individual obstacles with sections where teamwork is essential, asking you to support, lift, plan and push through together.
Expect a demanding mix of heavy hauls, hanging rigs, muddy sections, carries, climbs and technical obstacles. You’ll still need personal strength and determination, but success here comes from working as a unit.
Teams can enter in Female, Male or Mixed categories. The event is suitable for ages 14 and up and uses self-seeding start waves. Teams chasing a fast time can line up at the front, while those in it for the experience can seed further back and enjoy the ride.
Flamehunters is about more than finishing strong. It’s about shared effort, muddy high fives and the kind of memories that only come from taking on something tough together. Gather your crew and get ready to earn it.
