Deadly Dozen vs Forge Hybrid Race : distance, stations, prix et difficulté comparés (2026-27)

Deadly Dozen is a hybrid fitness race that began with a track race in Macclesfield, England, in mid-2024, founded by Jason Curtis. In the original Track Race, athletes alternate twelve 400 m runs, called Journeys, with twelve functional exercise stations, called Labours, for 4.8 km of running in total.

Athletes can race solo, as pairs who share the Labours, or as a relay team taking turns. Alongside the Track Race, the brand runs Deadly Sprint, Ultra and Hybrid formats, a youth race, a swim edition and gym-based races, including strength and barbell formats, through affiliate gyms. UK track races are held at athletics venues such as Lee Valley, Sheffield, Middlesbrough, Bristol, Macclesfield, Edinburgh, Crawley, Liverpool and Portsmouth, and the organisers say the network now spans 44 countries. First-timers are welcome, and the movements are designed to be accessible while still demanding.

FORGE Hybrid Race is Cambodia's first hybrid fitness race, held at the ISF Sports Ground in Phnom Penh. Athletes run ten 500 m laps, each followed by one of ten functional stations (some Cambodian-themed, e.g. the Rice Sack Carry), for 5 km in total; a Youth (12-17) division races 2.5 km with five bodyweight stations. Divisions are Individual Male/Female, Doubles Male/Female/Mixed and Youth, with waves of five athletes every five minutes and professional timing. Finisher shirts and patches are produced locally by the NGO ISF Cambodia. The inaugural edition is on 14 November 2026.
