Mission Objective
Your mission, should you be tough enough to accept it is like no other challenge on the planet. Your objective, decked out in full combat gear, is to complete a Special Forces Challenge spanning 13km. It's completely unique, which until now has never been attempted by civilians in this manner.
Each mission is designed for all levels of fitness… from the couch potato through to the fitness nut that eats iron bars for breakfast! Everyone can finish this mission, everyone does finish this mission.
Mission Overview
On arrival you will be issued your combat clothing and sit through a realistic mission brief of the days objective. Next you'll pick up a pack and head out on on a British Special Forces Challenge known in the military as a C.F.T. Each part of the challenge is designed to test your Agility, Strength, Stamina and Mental Determination, which are all key attributes of a modern combat soldier. Through-out the mission you will be wearing genuine Military Fatigues, pack and assault webbing. However before any Soldier can go into battle they must first understand…
1.What they have to do
2.How they're going to do it
3.What tools they have to complete the mission
4.What support is provided
The course is open to anyone over 18 years of age (Male and Female). The missions cater for all levels of fitness (or unfitness!). You will be pushed to your limits and at some point feel like quitting. It then becomes a mental challenge not a physical challenge. On average Operatives complete the Special Forces Challenge in 3 hours and 30 minutes. This really is the a test of the mind and spirit!
All levels of fitness have completed the course. Operatives, Good Luck
