Devils Circuit vs GORUCK Events : distance, stations, prix et difficulté comparés (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.

GORUCK is an American rucking company that makes rucksacks and training gear and runs team endurance events across the United States. Its flagship event, the GORUCK Challenge, has been held since 2010; the company says it has led more than 10,000 of them.

A Challenge is a team event, not a race. Participants carry a weighted rucksack and stay together as a class from start to finish, completing team-building tasks and covering miles under the direction of a GORUCK Cadre, drawing on Special Forces traditions. Challenges come in four levels: Light, Basic, Tough and Heavy, with the longer and harder levels aimed at well-trained participants. Finishers receive a patch that is not sold. GORUCK also runs the City Ruck Series of group rucks, timed ruck events such as 5K and 15K, and event weekends that combine several formats, such as Halloween in Salem and Ruckapalooza in Jacksonville Beach. Rucksack training beforehand is recommended.
