DURARE vs GYMRACE: distancia, estaciones, precio y dificultad comparados (2026-27)

DURARE (Race Durare) is an outdoor fitness race in England that is run while carrying a weighted sandbag. Its events take place around Telford and Shropshire, at venues such as CrossFit Telford, Oakengates Leisure Centre and a rugby club, and it is organised by Race Durare Ltd.

The race has eight blocks. In each one, athletes complete 60 reps of a movement and then a 600 m run: burpees, bear crawls, thrusters, lunges, box step-overs, seated twists, squats and ground-to-overheads. Athletes enter solo or as pairs in the DURARE Pro or Open division, with 55+ categories. Sandbag weights range from 7.5 kg to 25 kg depending on division and gender. With no built-in rest, DURARE is aimed at hybrid athletes, gym users and runners, and many entrants come from the CrossFit and HYROX communities.

GYMRACE is an indoor fitness race organised by the team behind Mud Masters, which has run sports events in the Netherlands and Germany since 2012. Races are held in large indoor venues in the Netherlands, Germany and France, including Utrecht, Amsterdam, Weeze, Duisburg and Paris.

The course has five 1 km runs, 5 km in total. Each run is followed by two stations, and the race ends with a 50 m sprint. The ten stations are a sled push, wall balls, a slam ball carry, a 1,000 m row, kettlebell swings to overhead, a 1,000 m SkiErg, dumbbell farmers lunges, a 2,000 m bike, burpee broad jumps and the final sprint. Athletes race solo, as buddies who split the station work, or in a relay team, in women's, men's, mixed and heavier 'Heavy' categories. The average finish time is about 1 hour 20 minutes and there is no cut-off time. The buddy category is the organiser's suggested entry point for newer athletes.
