Obstacle obsessed


Since being introduced in 2013, the Warrior Race has taken South Africa by storm, with more than 21,000 warriors now participating in these challenging obstacle races. Four Warrior Races have already taken place this year, with four more to go; the next race takes place in Natal, then in Cape Town, followed by the last two in Johannesburg. 

So why has it become such a hit so quickly? All is revealed in DO IT NOW Magazine's interview with Warrior Race Director, Pieter Swart, as well as his future plans for this popular obstacle race.
