Thank You 🙏RatRace Trans Africa: An Unforgettable Experience!Participating in RatRace Trans Africa was nothing short of an adventurous journey that exceeded all expectations. From the moment we set the wheels in motion to the final day on the road, every single kilometer was filled with excitement, camaraderie, and incredible experiences.@Abby deserves special thanks for making this trip possible. Her exceptional organizational skills, passion, and attention to detail ensured that we could focus on enjoying the journey without any worries. No matter what challenges we encountered along the way, @Abby always had a solution ready, making all the difference.The rest of the Rat Race crew also deserves high praise for their always positive and good-humored attitude. Their enthusiasm and energy were contagious, making it impossible not to be swept up in the excitement. They made even the most demanding stretches feel like a breeze and were always ready with an encouraging smile or a helping hand.The experience was absolutely fantastic – even the nights we camped! The improvised campsites became cozy gathering spots where we shared stories, laughed, and enjoyed the beauty of nature. There was a special magic in falling asleep under the African starry sky, with the sounds of nature as our background music.“RatRace Trans Africa was more than just a journey – it was a life-changing experience that created memories for a lifetime. Thanks to @Abby and the entire Rat Race crew for making it possible. If you have ever considered an adventure that combines community, challenge, and beauty, this is the trip for you.“See you on the next adventure!
Rat Race are fantastic at organising events, and at Easter Island, they truly showcased their epic skills. This adventure is perfect if you want to mix culture, magical discoveries, stunning nature, and fun running. There were surprises at every turn, and I loved them all, from cave explorations to snacking on wild fruit. James, the race organiser, found the most amazing local guides who gave us a unique look at the island and its secrets. As always with Rat Race, we could do as much or as little as we felt confortable with. I'm a city runner, and I happily completed all the runs, fueled by wild mangos and guavas. Speaking of fuel, I’m vegan and gluten intolerant, which is tricky in such a remote location, but Rat Race made it work. In short, I’d do this again in a heartbeat. Can’t wait for my next Rat Race Adventure!
I was lucky enough to get onto the ‘Test Pilot’ event taking place on Rapa Nui (Easter Island) in May 24. We were a small team of runners (all of whom were absolutely lovely) and under the watchful eye of James and Jim from Rat Race plus the super talented James A behind the camera, took in the most beautiful parts of the island on foot. The itinerary was well thought out meaning we got a well balanced mix of local culture and history, combined with enough running to ensure I slept for 90% of a 14hr flight home. Rat Race is a company with morals and ethics at the forefront of what they do. They have a shed load of experience and expertise, but they are also incredibly mindful of the environments they operate in and seemingly create great relationships wherever they go. Currently scanning Rat Race for next adventure(s)….. Thanks all :)
Yet to manage to run the race we have signed up for. But due to my partner having injured herself at work and unable to do it, simply changing the name is a mission. Their customer service don’t respond to emails, then when you’ve chased multiple times they send you the incorrect link to change it, when this is questioned they insist it’s the correct one so you assume they must be correct. Pay and low and beyond they have got it wrong and it’s actually transferring us and providing a voucher, now we yet again have to chase them having paid the fee. Absolutely dreadful customer service!!!!!
I had the absolute best time on the recent Easter Island 'test pilot' trip — I haven't finished processing it! Part of a small, likeminded team of runners supervised by James and Jim from Rat Race (and accompanied behind the camera by the uber-talented James Appleton), we were able to explore pretty much all of one of the most remote inhabited islands in the world. Truly a bucket-list experience.With a packed itinerary of hiking and running (largely accompanied by two extraordinary local guides) plus ample free time to explore Hanga Roa, the main town, this was a well-organised and perfectly executed trip. On a personal level, this was my first ever ultra and I was considerably less experienced at long distance and even trail running than everyone else in the group. Even though I chose not to join one of the runs so to be as fresh as possible for the ultra day, arrangements were made so I could still join in on the sightseeing parts of that day and not miss out, which was incredibly considerate.I am also immensely grateful to Jim for sticking by me during the ultra and allowing me the opportunity to learn so much from his experience, from running in the dark with a headtorch, to proper fuelling and hydration, to how best to use an aid station, to how to use poles, to blister care. He possesses an absolute wealth of knowledge but more importantly is happy to share it.Thank you Rat Race — you have truly lived up to your ethos: "it's about getting to the start line, not how fast you get to the finishline". Looking forward to the next one!
You MUST do the Easter Isle (Rapa Nui) adventure as soon as it is available. Picture this, you travel to the most remote, inhabited island in the world. It’s so small that its land mass is 1% the size of the Hawaiian islands. But that also means, you can cover almost the entire island through trekking and running tours, ducking into caves, eating fruit right off the trees, and seeing all the major Moai sculpture sites and many not often seen. Then on top of it you get two half marathons and an ultra marathon to test your grit. My favorite moment? Hard to say but maybe running and diving into the ocean after a 16 mile trek. You want adventure steeped in mystery and magic. Go Rat Race
Just taken part in the Croatia multisport event and there are no words to explain how great this trip is. Completely achievable by anyone with a decent level of fitness. The huge ultramarathon was walked by most and the rest cycle, kayak hard but not undoable. The views were exceptional, hotel fab and great pit stops to keep us fueled. The best bit was the crew and the other participants, made some friends for life. I would 100% recommend this event.
If you're looking for an amazing event experience, check out Rat Race events. I completed the Ultra Tour of Arran 2024, and it was the best organised event I've attended.First, the race went through technical terrain. The team, from the start, had you prepared. From mandatory kit check, reminders at the start, and well placed marshalls and event staff ensured you were safe and taken care of and could focus on doing the event.The terrain was well marked, even in highly technical bits. In many event courses, you might be worried about going the wrong way, but the winding path was visibly way marked even in the most remote places to ensure you didn't get lost. So many races do not have this type of signage, and you are praying you are on the right course until you see the next marker. With the UTA event, I was confident every step of the way.The Ultra Tour of Arran also took me to places I never would have chosen to go, but made it fun in the process. Who on first go thinks, let's go to a bog. Most normal people would avoid it. Rat Race had us running right through it, but made it fun and a moment everyone remembered. The staff were the loveliest people. With the fun intro every morning, to the personalised welcome every time you crossed the finish line, although UTA was a big event, it felt cosy, small and personal. The staff were lovely at every pit stop and always wanted to make sure you had the best time, had everything you needed, so you could enjoy the event.Finally, the UTA was a bucket list adventure. I was so scared about going alone, but I saw a place I never would have seen, accomplished something I never would have ever been able to do on my own, and made so many new friends. Don't get me wrong, it was tough, really tough, but it's something I will always talk about and remember! Loved this event so much. Thank you Rat Race team for helping me get to the finish line and accomplish something I never thought possible!
