The Rat Race
The Rat Race reaches Ireland. The much-loved event, having experienced runaway success in Britain, is now set to reach the shores of the Emerald Isle with 2 new and exciting events planned for Galway and Belfast this summer.
- Coming to Belfast for the first time and operating from an event base at City Hall on 09th August, the Rat Race sees competitors running, biking, kayaking, abseiling, climbing and navigating their way around the city in a course that is only revealed hours before they begin. Previous events have taken place in London, Bristol, Birmingham, Manchester and Edinburgh and 2008 sees the inaugural Belfast race lay solid foundations to become an annual event in the city. Although the course is kept a closely guarded secret until the eve of the event, the local Rat Race planners, led by AR legend Brian Elliott, have been hard at work finding the very best the city has to offer for this unique challenge.
