Conquer Fitness vs Mud Masters: distancia, estaciones, precio y dificultad comparados (2026-27)

Conquer Fitness is a UK organiser of hybrid fitness races that combine running with functional workout stations. Its events offer solo and team categories and are designed to be open to athletes of all fitness levels.

Its main format is Level Seven: seven endurance-based workouts, or levels, completed back to back against the clock with a 450 m run between each one. Level Seven runs in spring and autumn at Alderley Park, Macclesfield, with categories for solos, mixed teams and same-sex teams and a compulsory seeding workout used to set start waves. Super Seven is a stadium version held at Northwood Stadium, using indoor sports hall workouts and track elements while keeping seven workouts. Station work includes rowing, SkiErg, bike erg, sandbag lunges, tank pushes, farmers carries, devil's presses and shield carries. From 2026, results are recorded per level and masters (45+) podiums were added.

Mud Masters is an obstacle run organised by Mud Masters B.V. of Utrecht, held since 2012 at venues in the Netherlands and Germany. Current events include Haarlemmermeer and Biddinghuizen in the Netherlands and Airport Weeze in Germany, each running over a weekend. The organiser reports around 60,000 finishers per year.

The course is inspired by military training courses and built around teamwork. Distances run from 6 km (13+ obstacles, average finish time about 1 h 15 min) through 12 km (23+ obstacles, about 2 h 30 min) and 16 km (30+ obstacles, about 3 h 15 min) to a 42 km option at selected events. Obstacles include walls, monkey bars, rope climbs, tyre flips, mud crawls and ice-water baths, and routes change every season. Each weekend also has a Family Edition, and there is a finish festival after the race. The shorter distances suit first-timers and groups; the 16 and 42 km courses are for well-prepared runners.
