ABOUT THE GIG

Exclusive terrain-based obstacle courses designed as an elite Queenstown adventure combining mud, rivers, mixed terrain, and hardcore obstacles to create the toughest of challenges for you and your team.

With the most strategic course layouts constructed to test your level of robust fitness, your can-do attitude, camaraderie, and your mental commitment. As tough as they are, the adventurous atmosphere of the Mule events make it easy to focus on the fun you are having and not how many obstacles you have beaten or how much ground you have covered. With the constantly inquisitive nature of the modern athlete/adventurer, the need for the next challenge to be a memorable one has become the driving force behind the Mule.

OBSTACLE TYPES

  • Commit to the low level obstacles, enjoy the mud, the water and take the rough with the smooth
  • Training – Co-ordination, core strength, upper arms, upper legs
  • Practice crawling as low as you possibly can, work the arms and legs but keep the middle of your body very low to the ground, ultimately you will save energy and move more efficiently over the obstacles
  • Gully-Run-Bones-Black-and-White
  • Confidence in foot placement will allow you to move faster over the terrain, however identify the surface and placement of your feet when necessary
  • On the steep ascents and descents lean into the hillside
  • Don’t be afraid of tripping in the water runs, if you constantly think about each step through the water obstacles you will slow right down
  • Training – strong legs, ankles
  • Monkey-Bars-Winter-Test-Black-and-White
  • Keep a strong grip on each hand placement
  • Momentum is key, use the constant energy from the initial launch into the obstacles and keep it going until the other side
  • Keep the fluid motion going and rest at the end of the obstacle not half way through
  • Training – Arms, shoulders, core strength
  • Commit to taking the walls at the first attempt
  • A fast approach will give you momentum as you drive up and over the wall
  • Get an arm over the top of the wall and capitalize on the initial driving momentum to leverage your body over the wall
  • On the bigger walls lower yourself feet first and drop to the ground
  • Land with your feet evenly together
  • Training – Strong legs, strong upper body and core strength
