Egypt’s one-stop sports emporium Go Sport will be sponsoring a unique event in Egypt’s athletic landscape. On August 22nd, Marassi in Sahel will be playing host to Egypt’s first ever obstacle race, the Urban Race.

Athletes and average Joes alike will take on an 8km race, but it’s not as simple as that. Would-be winners will have to negotiate land, water, and a litany of different obstacles designed to test your athletic mettle. Do you think you’re bad enough, strong enough, and athletic enough to complete this tough trek? Well, there’s only one way to find out.

Anyone tough enough to complete this race will be awarded a winner’s medal, because let’s face it, it’s not going to be easy. In addition, the three runners who finish with the fastest time will win a special prize! So if you’re looking to test your endurance and fitness, or if you want to come along and cheer on the incredible athletes, check it out on their Facebook page to find out more.
