In order to manage an Adventure Race you need Marshalls to run logistics, stay awake all hours of the day and bring energy when no one has any left.

Here is some insight to what our Warrior Marshalls got up to during the Warriors Adventure Challenge 🤩

Eat your bananas!!!!

Great advice from Scott regarding cramps.
Banana is also fresh food and helps keep flavor fatigue away.

This is last night (3Aug 18:30 SA time) before taking on the 25km cycle.

On a normal day a 25km cycle takes the average person around 2-3 hours of cycling.
What the team doesnt know yet - due to the time they have been awake and that they have been moving non-stop for 9 hours already… this cycle will take much longer.

This is where the real mental grit comes to show. Pushing through the night, cold, dark and sleep deprivation.

✨ From flour to finished pasta! 🍝

Our Gap Year Warriors recently rolled up their sleeves for an unforgettable pasta-making workshop in Johannesburg, where they learned the art of creating fresh pasta from scratch.

More than just a cooking class, the experience was about creativity and patience. It was incredible to see our Warriors learning new skills, sharing plenty of laughs, and enjoying the delicious rewards of their hard work together.

Here’s to making memories, building confidence, and embracing every opportunity to learn—one plate of pasta at a time! ❤️
