Get to know the course
Rescue Run is not your typical 'Mud Run' - it is so much more.
2018 is going to be 5 times as epic, with brand new challenges & obstacles to rival our first year.
On a scale never-before-seen in New Zealand (or the world!)... these obstacles are extreme. We're talking a 60-metre-long earthquake zone made out of concrete & lined with challenges... Mudslides that are bigger than you can imagine! This will be an experience to rival all other adventure races.
Competitors are timed across a 15km high intensity obstacle course with points awarded for a variety of team challenges. Obstacle disaster zones are insane; designed by disaster relief & emergency service professionals including Civil Defence, Land Search & Rescue Auckland, St John, Surf Life Saving Northern Region, CoastGuard Northern Region, Fire & Emergency (FENZ) Northwest Volunteer Brigades’, and more... they will each simulate real-world rescue scenarios.

The Patient Rescue
The Patient Rescue Zone is a simulated first responder challenge. Using GPS technology, teams are tasked with locating survival equipment, rescuing an injured patient, performing first aid and an emergency evacuation.
|
The Flood ZoneThe Flood Zone features a large water maze obstacle that simulates a series of submerged city streets. Teams will need to navigate an escape at various depths, while keeping their patient warm and dry.
|
|
The MudslideThe Mudslide Zone tests a team’s strength and endurance. The key here is to carry their patient through the flow of mud and water by sending someone across to anchor for a guide rope to assist in their struggle to climb out.
|
|
The Car Pile upThe Car Pile-up Zone features a multi-vehicle motorway crash site. Teams will traverse a chaotic accident simulation filled with noise, smoke, fire and screams.
|
|
The Earthquake ZoneThe Earthquake Zone forces teams into a quake aftermath simulation featuring damaged buildings & debris. They’ll need to act fast, assess damage, find a safe passage and retrieve an injured patient from the rumble.
