100-Meter Obstacle Heat
Welcome to the 100-Meter Competitive Obstacle Heat—the fastest, most intense test at Obstacle Wonderland.

This is not about endurance.
This is not about mileage.
This is pure power, precision, and execution.

Athletes will face a straight-line, obstacle-packed 100-meter course designed to push speed, strength, grip, and technical skill to the absolute limit. Every movement matters. Every mistake costs time. There is nowhere to hide.

What to Expect:
✔ A short, explosive 100-meter course
✔ Dense obstacle placement—no wasted steps
✔ Grip, strength, balance, and coordination under pressure
✔ Head-to-head competitive format ( for elites )
✔ Fastest times advance
This heat is built for athletes who thrive under pressure, recover instantly from failure, and can move aggressively while staying composed. Strategy matters—but execution wins.

One course. One shot. One champion.

If you want a true test of obstacle skill where speed meets mastery, this is where you prove it.

Endurance Heat
Rise of the Obstacle
This heat is where engine meets grit.
The Endurance Heat blends a measured stretch of trail running with repeated assaults on Obstacle Wonderland’s signature rigs and field obstacles. Athletes will move in and out of the woods, back onto the field, and straight into technical challenges that demand strength, grip, and mental toughness over and over again.
This isn’t a straight run.
It’s a rhythm you have to survive.
✔ Trail sections to test pacing and recovery
✔ Multiple passes through rigs and obstacles
✔ Strength and grip fatigue build with every lap
✔ Designed to punish poor strategy and reward smart racing
Go out too hot and the rigs will humble you.
Hold back too much and the clock will catch you.
The Endurance Heat is for athletes who can run when tired, grip when smoked, and think under pressure. It’s not about one big move—it’s about holding it together when everything starts to fall apart.

Awesome finisher medals different for each heat and tons of swag !
