Children ran a course of 1.7 km with seven obstacles.
Each obstacle was tested by a certified Indian Mountaineering Federation (IMF) instructor and IMF certified instructors supervised each obstacle during the race.
Co-founder of Alpha League Races, Jatin Arora said, “We designed the obstacles in a manner that would get participants to sweat it out and clench their teeth as they jump, crawl, climb and hop. All this while the clock ticks. The race tested each participant’s mental strength, stamina to endure and camaraderie.”
