THE MISSION:
Twelve hours. Two hundred athletes. £5,000 on the line.
MISSION.247 returns for its second year of the 247 Game series, moving from Rivington to the woodland trails of Holme Styes, Holmfirth. The format is the same brutal equation: a trail loop at the top of every hour, SkiErg metres in whatever time remains, and a leaderboard that never stops moving.
Last year's inaugural event proved what a team of five can survive. This year the terrain changes, and 40 teams of 5 will find out what twelve hours in the Holme Valley actually takes.
For all general queries, contact 247mission@representclo.com
Event Format
40 Teams Of 5
*Minimum one female participant per team.
At the top of each hour, two or more team members must complete a 5.1km trail loop.
Remaining time in the hour is used to accumulate maximum distance on the SkiErg.
Team performance is based on a cumulative point system over 12 hours.
Scoring:
1 Trail Loop Completed= 5 pts
250m SkiErg Completed = 1 pt
Rules & Structure
- A minimum of two runners per team, per round are required to run in order to score additional points on the SkiErg
- If no one runs in a round, the team forfeits 15 points
- If no runner begins within 60 seconds of the hour, 5 points will be deducted
- SkiErg can ONLY be used once the first runner from your team returns
- All athletes must be 18 or older on event day
- The SkiErg will proceed on the last pull until the metres have stopped moving, then scores will be recorded
- SkiErg metres are tallied at the end of each round and divided by 250m to calculate points. Only complete 250m intervals count - any remainder is lost when the SkiErg resets for the next round.
Example: 1,100m accumulated = 4 points (1,000m counted / 100m remainder forfeited)
- Judges' discretion: 500m are deducted if you proceed to use the SkiErg past the hour countdown
- One team entry covers all five competitors. Full team details must be submitted at the point of entry
