DURARE vs Turf Games: 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.

Turf Games is a team-based functional fitness competition that tests strength, speed, endurance and teamwork. It started in 2018 as a way to bring London's fitness community together. It was founded by Andrew Manteit and now holds events in cities including London, Dubai, Singapore and Brisbane.

There are several competition formats. Fitness Festivals are run for teams of six athletes, with music, food and entertainment around the competition floor. The City Tour is for teams of four, ranked on one global leaderboard, and Engine is Turf Games' hybrid fitness race. Teams pick a division that matches their level: Everyday is the entry point, with lighter weights and no high-skill movements, while Intermediate and Elite bring heavier loads and more skilled elements. This makes Turf Games suitable for gym groups and friends competing together as well as experienced competitors.
