QUADRA - Bristol
QUADRA is a hybrid fitness race that alternates short runs with four structured workout zones. The format combines strength, sandbag work, moving weight under fatigue and high-rep conditioning. The event is presented as a fresh format developed from the Superhuman Games.
The race format is the same for all competitors. Each athlete or pair begins with a 2K Ruck Run, completes the first two zones (QUICKFIRE and UPLIFT), performs a 2K Sandbag Run, completes the final two zones (ASCEND and DEFY), then finishes with a final 2K Run. Pairs must complete the three runs together; workout-zone movements may be split between teammates. Mixed pairs use the men's prescribed weights for the whole event. Minimum age is 18. The Bristol event takes place indoors at the Bristol Bears High Performance Centre on 21 November 2026.
Distances for the runs:
- 2K Ruck Run
- 2K Sandbag Run
- 2K final Run
Zone highlights and typical loads include QUICKFIRE (heavy jump rope and bodyweight movement), UPLIFT (sandbag over shoulder and tombstone carries), ASCEND (sandbag ground to overhead and lunges) and DEFY (sprints and burpee broad jumps). Prescribed equipment weights are specified separately for women and men. Entry categories include Individuals, Same Sex Pairs and Mixed Pairs, with age-group divisions and early bird and main-release pricing. Every entry includes a finisher's patch, event photos and sponsor goodies or discounts. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
