First time taking part in the Rattler. Did the 102 mile course and glad I did. Amazing scenery, fantastic route and well marshalled/signed. Thank you to the team for organising and getting me over the finish line.

The team consistently host too-notch events in the beautiful New Forest. It’s a beautiful hit challenging place to put on sport events and they do it so well! Great communication, fun atmosphere and the best Marshalls I’ve met on a race!

This is my second time using Challenging Events and couldn’t recommend them highly enough. It was my first time participating in both events (previous triathlon and today’s 47 mile bike ride) and the info they provide pre race to the organisation on the day is outstanding. A real...

Well organised event, course was challenging if, like me, you have never ridden that distance. Scenery was outstanding, feed stations were well spaced and well stocked - all the staff and marshalls were super supportive and being cheered in at the end was a great touch. Will do t...

Excellent event. I’d highly recommended for all ages and this caters for all abilities. What a great way to see The New Forest. The CE crew were friendly and supportive as always and provided me with everything I needed (and more)!

I did the swim (epic), bike (100miles) and half marathon. I loved this weekend as it’s great prep for my upcoming ironman. All the nutrition, route planning etc was taken care of for me. The Cycle was well signposted and the aid stations were great. The swim was actually my favourite. The water at Ellingham was lovely to swim (clear!) in and it’s a big loop so only a few laps and you’ve covered the distance. The run was on quiet roads- some challenging hills but part of it. The marshals made the event for me and I loved the connecting medals. Will definitely do it again! Thanks CE

Another great event put on by challenging events. Lovely course and very friendly. Unfortunately medals were given out incorrectly so they had no interlinking swim medals to give me after I finished. Will definitely be back again next year. Thank you
