You won’t know where you’re going until the start line. When race packs are opened, you will discover five checkpoints, one in each of England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland and Northern Ireland, which you can visit in any order.

Using only rail, coach and ferry networks, you’ll plan your own route in real time, racing to connect all five checkpoints before the clock runs out.

Key info:
> Travel by public transport only
> Fastest three from each start city win cash prizes
> £155 per person
> Discounted rates for under 18s
> Includes entry to the Manchester awards party and a welcome drink
> Flexible payment plan available at no extra cost

Our races are about community as well as competition. Before the event, you can connect with fellow racers in an online hub to swap strategies and tips, and you're bound to bump into a few racers along the way.

See you at the start line!
