Story
Thank you for taking part in the second year of Race The World. We will be back in 2022.
Find out more about the 2022 event.
Soldiers from across the country took part in our very first Race the World - The Seven Continents Virtual Challenge in the Autumn of 2020. Units raced each other across the seven continents - cycling, tabbing, rowing, swimming and running - clocking up to an incredible 35,000km per unit and raising an amazing £18,000 for our charity. The competition was fierce, making Race the World a very welcome distraction from COVID-19.
Race the World will return this year. Will your unit be the champions of 2021?
Battling to cover the distance of the continents, teams are expected to blaze a trail around the world to beat the competition, in addition to raising money for our charity.
Race the World is open to any Army unit, Regular and Reserve. Teams can opt to complete three continents (Bronze), five continents (Silver) or all seven continents (Gold). Continents will be completed within a specified time period. Fundraising efforts will be rewarded by distance bonuses during some stages of the race.
