21 SEPTEMBER 2016, MPUMALANGA – This weekend, Kwanyoni Lodge in Nelspruit, is the host for South Africa’s top Warriors tackling Round 6 the country’s biggest obstacle races, the Jeep Warrior Series, powered by Reebok, taking place from 24 to 25 September 2016.

A mere 16 km from Nelspruit, Kwanyoni Lodge will be packed with thousands of athletes who have entered to race over various course distances packed with obstacles, testing strength, skill and endurance, whilst having the most fun with family and friends.

Nelspruit’s Kwanyoni Lodge is a new venue, which won a nationwide vote for new venues to host Jeep Warrior Races. It is described as a hidden jewel in the picturesque citrus valley of Alkmaar and is home to South Africa’s “Big 5”.

Says Jonathan Hart, Advendurance event organiser and Jeep Warrior Series Course Designer, “The Jeep South Africa #Warrior6 powered by Reebok caters for all fitness levels and age groups. Kwanyoni Lodge is a fantastic venue and offers comfortable accommodation for the entire family. Bring your crew along as there is much fun to be had! There is something for everyone, including a Bratz Race and Bratz child-minding zone. Bring on the weekend!”

Warrior Bratz caters for children ages 4 -12 years old, covering a distance of 500 metres; with 8 obstacles aimed at challenging the little athletes. Parents/guardians are welcome to accompany their children through the course, but may not attempt the obstacles themselves.

Warrior Rookie is the perfect introduction to OCR for athletes 10 years and older, offering up to 15 fun obstacles over a distance from 5 to 8 km. This race is great for team building as well, plus if you’re unable to complete an obstacle, a 20-burpee penalty will see you on your way.

Warrior Rookie Elite is for those that compete for prize money and there are no substitute penalties. All obstacles have to be completed.

Warrior Commando is for those seeking a greater challenge and who want to test themselves a little more in terms of endurance, strength and agility. Commando places a bit more stress on upper body strength than Rookie, but is easier than Black Ops. Warrior Elite means no teams or assistance with other participants is allowed, and all obstacles have to be completed.

Competition in Black Ops and Black Ops Elite race is fierce and presents the toughest of courses, set over 15 – 20 km with up to 30 obstacles, matching world OCR standards. It is the most challenging category, combining both Rookie and Commando obstacles with the addition of endurance obstacles that involve carrying and dragging heavy objects for set distances.

Black Ops Elite is the best of the best warriors competing for prize money. No help allowed and needs to be completed as an individual, plus all obstacles have to be completed or disqualification. As tough as it gets.

Currently, the men’s Black Ops Elite seeding has Claude Eksteen leading with Jeep Team’s Thomas van Tonder in second, and Bradley Claase in third.

Says Van Tonder, “Warrior 6 will be an epic day of training ahead of the OCR World Champs in Canada. These Warrior Races attract all the top contenders in South Africa and demands optimum performance! Bring it on! ”

In the Women’s Black Ops Elite seeding, Hanneke Dannhauser heads the leaderboard, with Trish Bahlmann in second, and Jeep Team’s Carina Marx in 3rd ahead of Dominique D’Oliveira in 4th place.

So grab an old pair of takkies, t-shirt and shorts and enter you and your friends into South Africa’s biggest growing and hippest sport, Jeep Warrior OCR. Remember, Jeep Warrior courses are not for the meek and mild. It is lead by the Jeep brand, so expect mud, water, bridges, slides, ladders, climbing nets, monkey ropes and all sorts of fun and challenging terrain and obstacles.

There’s still time to enter Jeep Warrior Kwanyoni Lodge.
