Nuclear Rush OCR Races
Saturday, 10 May 2025 to Sunday, 11 May 2025
Kelvedon Hatch, Brentwood, UK
The Nuclear Rush weekend in Brentwood, Essex from 10 to 11 May 2025 offers a variety of Obstacle Races for all levels, including the Oblivion Extreme endurance OCR challenge.
On both days, adults can choose from a chip-timed 6km (40+ obstacles) or 12km (70+ obstacles) distance over a muddy farmland course. Attempt as many obstacles as you like.
Kids (Rookies) can test their skills on a specially designed 1.5km course filled with around 20 kid-sized obstacles while running in woods, on paths & open fields. Those 4-8 years of age complete one lap of the 1.5km course (accompanied by an adult). 9-14 year olds complete the 1.5km lap twice (3km).
On Sunday there is also a 4km Family wave for those 10 years +. There must be one member in the group who is 18+ years.
For those looking for an endurance OCR challenge, Sunday includes the Oblivion Extreme where competitors complete as many laps of the 12km course as they can in 8 hours - this has the potential for up to 60K with 350+ obstacles. See also the Oblivion Samhain held as part of the Nuclear Fallout event.
