Conservation &Glensara is the guardian of the Gauntlet. Carved like the Khmer temple guardians of Angkor and wrapped in Highland tartan, Glensara stands at every start line and watches over every team on the course.
The name joins two legacies: Glen, for the valleys of Scotland, and sara, from the Apsara, the celestial dancers of Khmer heritage.
A 10 km team challenge across water, mud, walls and aerial crossings. Choose an obstacle, or filter by what it asks of you.
Local DJs from 2 pm, live bands into the night and the Afterglow laser finale. The villages are open all day, for racers, families and festival-goers alike.
