Think. Canoe. Think. Cycle. Think. Run. Think.

Update: The 8 Task Challenge has been postponed and will not be taking place on 28 April 2012. Information about future events will be publicised via TARGETevents and 8taskchallenge.co.uk.

If you're looking for a real challenge, look no further. The 8 Task Challenge run by TARGETevents will allow you to test yourself physically and mentally against students from the top universities in the UK. On top of that you'll have a great day out and be in with a shot at winning up to £3,000 for you and your university club or society. 

To win part of the cash prize fund, teams must complete specially designed tasks at checkpoints situated around the course based at Rutland Water.

To reach these checkpoints teams must canoe, cycle and walk/run. Teams will be awarded points for each of the checkpoint tasks they complete and for the amount of time it takes them to complete the course. The emphasis is on a team's ability to complete each task successfully rather than just their outright speed. These points will be added to those generated by a short pre-event exercise, giving  teams an overall score.

Once everyone has finished the course there will be a post-event BBQ and refreshments and the prize giving ceremony where winners will be presented with their awards and cheques. More than 150 teams entered to take part in the last event. For more information go to the Details page.
