| Terrain | Both venues offer the crazy Kamikaze runner incredible gradient related challenges to overcome. The spurs and valleys of these amazing tracts of land provide not only tightly packed contour lines but phenomenal scenery to enjoy as you battle round. To complement the natural features the votwo course designers have gone radical and added many more outrageous obstacles; implemented to test fitness, nerve and determination. Visit the video gallery and search ‘Kamikaze votwo’ on You Tube to get a real feel for what it might be like…….
More mud, hills and challenging obstacles then you can point your samurai sword at. Each venue uses the largest down hill slope on the course to provide the runners with a flying start. Expect this to be the biggest \'charge\' since Last Hurrah of the Savoia Cavalry Regiment in 1942 (Google that if you want to learn some interesting military history). |

| Bens Comments | Nothing brings a smile to my face more then seeing hundreds of runners struggling up hills that I really shouldn’t make them run up! I also enjoy collecting lost trainers from the bog , one day I’m sure I’ll find a complete pair! |
