Devils Circuit vs XLETIX Challenge: distancia, estaciones, precio y dificultad comparados (2026-27)

Maruti Suzuki Swift Devils Circuit is an obstacle race series in India, founded by Adnan Adeeb and produced by Spectacom Global. It describes itself as India's first obstacle race and is now in its 14th season, touring 12 Indian cities including Mumbai, Delhi NCR, Bengaluru, Pune, Hyderabad, Chennai, Kolkata, Ahmedabad and Kochi, with a finale in Delhi.

Each race is a 5 km course with 15 obstacles. Categories include Competitive, where men must clear 15 obstacles within 50 minutes and women 13 within 70 minutes to qualify for the leaderboard, a limited Pro Wave, Competitive Doubles, a Corporate Cup for teams of three, and Non-Competitive waves with no clock. The fastest 25 competitive racers qualify for the season finale. Finishers receive a medal, T-shirt and bandana, with hydration every kilometre. The non-competitive waves suit beginners and groups; the competitive categories need good running and grip strength.

The XLETIX Challenge (presented by MaxiNutrition) is a team-focused obstacle race series organised by XLETIX GmbH, a Berlin company founded in 2013 by Jannis Bandorski and Matthias Ernst. Events take place at seven locations in Germany and Austria, including Berlin, Tirol Innsbruck, München Erding, NRW, Norddeutschland and, from 2027, the Nürburgring.

Participants choose one of three distances, 6 km, 12 km or 18 km, with up to 35 obstacles involving mud, water, walls and slides. The course is run in 6 km loops, so team members can pick different distances and anyone can stop after a completed loop. The focus is on getting through the course together rather than on finishing times. The series suits groups of friends, colleagues and first-time obstacle racers as well as fitter runners who want the longest distance. The same company also runs XLETIX Kids for children aged 5 to 15 and the women-only Muddy Angel Run.
