Many of us live a time-poor existence, rushing from home to work and back again. If you’re anything like me, what I love is that feeling of spontaneity – just doing a challenge whenever the need takes you.
Consequently, the challenges you’ll find here are all feasible during the week. You don’t even need much kit. If you’re in possession of a pair of running shoes, you can complete every challenge here.
The beauty about these pop-up races is that you can slip them into your holiday just as easily as you might swig on a latte. If you happen to be passing by a funicular, why not just stop and see if you can beat it? The most important thing to remember is, anything is possible. These are just templates to get you started. And remember, it’s no good keeping it to yourself. Tell your friends about it, and challenge them to see if they can beat your time.
60 MINUTES
HOW MUCH CAN YOU DO IN 60 MINUTES?
CONCEPT
As creatures of habit, we like to know how long something will take. But in contrast to a race, which is often limited by distance, this orienteering-style challenge is about squeezing in as much as you can within 60 minutes, all while exploring your local neighbourhood.
