Ever since the start of Strong Viking in 2013, our editions are not a race but a challenge. It's all about pushing your limits and overcoming obstacles together. An important part of all Strong Viking editions is having fun together! To also introduce less experienced athletes to Strong Viking, we will introduce a new distance: BEGINNING (4km). The obstacles you will encounter on this course have been carefully selected for this new distance. The obstacles are especially fun and focused on cooperation.

The obstacles you encounter on this course have been carefully selected for this new distance. The obstacles are especially focused on fun and corporation. You will not encounter any extremely difficult or heavy obstacles. It's all a bit less technical and has a very high fun factor. Do you not dare an obstacle and/or are you afraid that you will not succeed? No problem! At every obstacle there is a possibility for a by-pass, where you can skip/walk around the obstacle! But... since we always try to push you to your limit, always try to challenge yourself before skipping!

Fitlevel: Starting (rookie/sporadic athlete)

Average duration: 90 minutes.

Do you think the 4km - LIGHTNING distance is too short and/or are you ready for the next step? Then the Strong Viking Lightning 7km is your distance! The Lightning distance is very accessible, just like the Beginning distance, also for the more inexperienced sporters/athletes. Don’t you work out on a weekly base and/or do you sport just once a week, then the Lightning distance is the ideal introduction to our obstacle runs. Prepare yourself for fun obstacles, mud and a lot of climbing work where strength, condition and fitness are not really needed! The Lightning 7km distance is the most fun together with friends, family or colleagues. So, if you have a fellow Viking that can you can enthuse to run with you, we definitely recommend this!

Besides the physical obstacles/challenges, which sometimes involve some form of technique, there are also several mental obstacles that you need to overcome. Think of height, speed, cold and/or even claustrophobic obstacles! Do you like to challenge yourself and do you like to face the unknown? Then take on the 13km Warrior distance together with your friends! De 13km Warrior distance is the ideal distance to overcome together as a company and/or sports team as teambuilding activity.

During the Beast 19km we test almost all your muscle groups and overall condition. The 19km Beast is an unique route where you will never encounter the same obstacle twice. Where you can sometimes count on the help of your fellow Vikings at the other distances, the Beast 19km obstacles also test the more individual qualities!

OCR Series:
For the more fanatic Vikings, the Beast 19km course also offers a race-possibility! Here it is possible to measure yourself against other runners! This is possible in the OCR (Obstacle Course Racing) Series startwave. In this wave, only the best OCR athletes compete by overcoming our courses as fast as possible (time registration) while overcoming ALL obstacles successfully, which are being judged by marshals. The OCR Series startwave is the only wave at Strong Viking where the final ranking will be published! For more info check the next page!

To make it even more challenging, participants only have 7,5hrs time to cross the finish line, within the indicated cut-off times.
