About the race
The Tough Gal Team Challenge in Kumeū, West Auckland is a women-only team obstacle course event for groups of three. The course is designed to be equivalent in challenge to a 6 km cross-country course though actual distance may vary by venue due to terrain and obstacles. The event features rugged outdoor terrain on farmland and natural bushland with obstacles such as mud pits, climbing walls, and crawling tunnels. Teams of three compete for podium merit medals awarded to the first three Tough Gal Teams on gun time.
All competitors receive a finisher’s medal, a personalized race number (if entered by the stated deadline), event support, first aid, and electronic timing. Hot showers, toilets, changing rooms, covered gathering areas, hot food and coffee for sale, and free parking are available at Kumeū Showgrounds, Gate 2, Access Rd. Entry capacity at Kumeū is limited to 1,500 competitors. The event permits participants aged 13 and over for the Tough Gal Team Challenge.
Covered footwear is compulsory and clothing suitable for wet and muddy conditions is recommended; football or rugby boots with moulded studs are permitted while running spikes and aluminium-studded boots are not. Obstacles may be skipped for safety or inability, but skipping an obstacle makes a participant ineligible for podium placings. Withdrawals notified by the published deadline receive a partial refund; entry fees are not refunded in the case of event cancellation for uncontrollable factors.
