#1 Gauteng | 3 feb 2024 | Die Bosveld
Warrior #1 is back in Gauteng Province on 3 February at the Outdoor Lifestyle Venue Die Bosveld in Doornpoort Pretoria. Put your team together and vanquish the opposition. Step out of your comfort zone, test the muddy waters, rise to the occasion, and be a Warrior! But, most importantly, have FUN with your teammates.
We challenge you...
The Virgin Active Warrior Race is about perseverance, determination, and grit. It is about the collective tenacity of South Africans to endure and to emerge stronger. Bravery is what defines us. Our courage is our armour.
The Virgin Active Warrior Race is an ideal opportunity for groups or companies to socialise and have fun in a safe yet challenging environment by overcoming obstacles, running, laughing and playing in the mud.
