You must bring your clean fire kit - Compartment fire rated tunic and legs, fire boots, fire helmet (not a rescue or cadet helmet) and fire gloves (not rescue gloves) Anyone not without the correct or altered fire kit will not be allowed to race.

We are deeply saddened by the passing of our friend and colleague Chief Fire Officer/Chief Executive Rob Taylor. Rob wasn’t just a leader - he was part of our Firefighter Challenge family, stepping in to support and even compete alongside us.
