Where’d we go?
On Margate beach, RedBull constructs a 1/2mile loop course which features essentially a number of gigantic sandcastles. The aim of the game is to run 2 laps as quickly as you can to qualify for the next round.
We LOVED…
The silliness! We honestly felt like kids again. It was so much fun!
We Struggled…
With the sand! As you can imagine it gets everywhere and E’s pet peeve is gritty feet. Not ideal when racing around a giant sandpit.
Why this Race…
It’s fun, silly, epic and hard!
Famous Faces…
Louise Hazel, former GB Olympian
Mid run Brainwave…
Maybe if I use my GoPro handle as a pickaxe I will get up this sandhill quicker…
NB: that did not work!
Rocket Fuel…
RedBull of course!
Number 1 Fan…
Ben from RedBull was on hand with our very glittery pink phones to help get all the snaps. Thanks Ben!
