Forge Hybrid Race vs Gladiator Race: distancia, estaciones, precio y dificultad comparados (2026)

FORGE Hybrid Race is Cambodia's first hybrid fitness race, held at the ISF Sports Ground in Phnom Penh. Athletes run ten 500 m laps, each followed by one of ten functional stations (some Cambodian-themed, e.g. the Rice Sack Carry), for 5 km in total; a Youth (12-17) division races 2.5 km with five bodyweight stations. Divisions are Individual Male/Female, Doubles Male/Female/Mixed and Youth, with waves of five athletes every five minutes and professional timing. Finisher shirts and patches are produced locally by the NGO ISF Cambodia. The inaugural edition is on 14 November 2026.

Gladiator Race is a Czech obstacle course race series organised by Sportvisio, z.s., an events organisation based in Hradec Králové that also runs road and trail races. The series visits venues around the Czech Republic, including Prague, Pardubice, Terezín Fortress and Český ráj, and adds seasonal editions such as a Halloween race at Josefov Fortress and a winter 'Taxis' race in Pardubice.

Courses run through natural terrain with water, mud and built obstacles. Events such as the Halloween race offer a competitive RACE category, an OPEN category and a FUN option, with entries for individuals, mixed pairs and teams, plus children's races (Kids I, Kids II and Family). Some events have special formats, such as the Halloween race where costumes are encouraged. Series awards such as Triumphalis and Primus Palus recognise racers who complete multiple events. The series suits both first-time obstacle runners in the open categories and competitive athletes in the RACE waves.
