Nuclear Fit vs The Hybrid Games : distance, stations, prix et difficulté comparés (2026-27)

Nuclear Fit is an outdoor hybrid fitness race run by Nuclear Races at its obstacle course site near Brentwood, Essex. Instead of an indoor track, athletes run six 1 km trail loops, each including two 4 ft hurdles, and complete a fitness station after each loop in a central arena called The Core.

The stations use farm-themed equipment: a tyre flip, a farmers urn hug, a plough pull, a milk churn carry, a sandbag duck-and-throw and a squat-and-lift, with separate loads for men and women. Categories include singles, doubles and mixed doubles, plus a three-person relay in which each member completes two runs and two stations, and a Pro wave with longer station distances. Waves start every 10 minutes, chip timing records each run and station split, and there is a 2-hour time limit. It suits runners and gym-goers who want a hybrid race on trails rather than indoors.

The Hybrid Games is a fitness race series run at indoor venues across the UK. The course alternates ten 600 m runs with ten functional stations and finishes with a 200 m sprint, about 6.2 km of running in total. Stations include an air bike, wall balls, rowing, burpee broad jumps, dumbbell snatches, lunges, a farmers carry, a sled pull, SkiErg and a sled push, with separate weights for men and women.

Entries are available as Male or Female Solo and as Male, Female or Mixed Doubles. Every station is judged, athletes are chip-timed, and the organisers state that there is no cut-off time. Results feed a season leaderboard ranked by age group. Recent and upcoming host cities include Liverpool, Newcastle, Birmingham and Glasgow. It suits athletes who train both running and strength and want a judged race.
