HOKA ASCENT - Race Against Elevation
HOKA ASCENT - A vertical challenge between Clark Ádám Square and the Buda Castle.
This is not a usual run.
We’re taking over the hills after dark for a nighttime ascent challenge built around movement, discovery, and pure elevation.
You’ll run through the streets, climb staircases, and chase clues — guided only by instinct, your team, and the map in your hand.
/ RACE FORMAT
We expect 200 participants,
You’ll be randomly divided into 10 groups,
Each runner will receive a group number and a map at the start to find checkpoints.
The course is between Clark Ádám Square and the Fisherman's Bastion / Buda Castle area.
/ YOUR MISSION
Find 3 out of 6 hidden RLC leaders across the course.
But here’s the twist:
You don’t know their exact locations
You’ll get hints on a map
And most importantly… 👉 You must find them in the correct order!!!
Why? Because only the last leader will reveal the final destination! 🙈
Each leader will give you a challenge to complete before unlocking the next step.
So yes — you’ll be running up and down a lot!
/ AFTER
Once everyone finishes, we move together to PONTOON🪩💃🏻 for drinks, party, and to hit the summer energy we've all been waiting for. A proper cooldown with the community. 🤩
