Braveheart Battle vs REDLINE Fitness Games: distancia, estaciones, precio y dificultad comparados (2026-27)

The Braveheart Battle is an old-school obstacle race held each March on the slopes around the Skiarena Silbersattel in Steinach, Thuringia. It is organised by Be Brave Go Hard GmbH, based in Steinach. The event moved from the Rhön to the Thuringian Forest in 2019.

The main challenge is the natural terrain: a hilly cross-country course with steep climbs in wintry conditions, plus added obstacles that need no complicated rulebook. The race starts with a mass start and the 'KillHill' sprint from the valley station to the middle station. Runners choose between the Rookie distance of about 10 km and the Original distance of about 20 km. The organiser requires participants to be able to swim, to wear trail shoes with good grip and gloves, and to be at least 16 years old, and sets a time limit of five hours. Awards go to the fastest women, men and teams. It suits fit trail runners and experienced obstacle racers.

REDLINE Fitness Games is a gamified functional fitness race series created in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, in 2023 and organised by Fresh Events Asia Sdn Bhd. It has expanded across Southeast Asia, with events in Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, Singapore and Ho Chi Minh City.

The race takes participants through 12 workout stations, including a 500 m run, SkiErg, deadball over shoulder, BikeErg, farmers carry, shuttle runs, plank pull, sandbag gauntlet, rowing, burpee thrusters, sandbag carries and a final sled push and pull. The workout is standardised for each calendar year, with two or three stations changed annually. Singles race at three levels (Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced) for men and women, alongside men's, women's and mixed doubles and four-person team relays. The organiser says the race takes about 30 to 55 minutes depending on level. The Beginner level makes it accessible to gym-goers new to fitness racing.
