TURF ENGINE
Following its success at our sold out events in London since 2021, Gold Coast and Dubai 2025 – we can’t wait for our UK Winter community to test themselves in this race. Turf Engine is an endurance race featuring all the machines we love - ski, bike, row, Assault bike + running - and burpee broad jumps - ultimately testing your ENGINE! It's not about how strong you are, it's about how you can work together and how fast can you move. The workout will be between 42 and 60 minutes long - depending on your fitness level!
This event is perfect for everyone - no matter what your fitness background, OCR, running, functional fitness, its is low skill and simply comes down to your... ENGINE. We want as many people as possible to be able to enjoy, compete and be part of the Turf Games community.
