DURARE vs The Yoddha Race : distance, stations, prix et difficulté comparés (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.

The Yoddha Race is a hybrid fitness race series in India run by Spectacom Global, the company behind Devils Circuit. Season 3 has six regional races, in Mumbai, Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Ahmedabad, Chandigarh and Delhi, followed by a Grand Finale.

The race alternates 700 m runs with seven workout zones completed in order: 1,000 m rowing, 50 m sled push, 50 m sled pull, 200 m kettlebell carry, 30 box jumps, 100 m weighted lunge walk and wall ball throws, with weights set by category. Categories are Male and Female Open and Male, Female and Mixed Doubles, with a Masters (40+) category added at regional level. Finishers under 90 minutes earn the Yoddha medal. Results feed a national leaderboard that decides who reaches the Grand Finale, which adds mystery workouts and a cash prize pool. It suits regular gym-goers and runners preparing for hybrid racing.
