New for June 6th - SCREAM FIELDS
Deep within a brutal new section of the HELL & BACK course, SCREAM FIELDS introduces 7 new obstacles built to test balance, grip, nerve and determination.

Can you survive SCREAM FIELDS?
⚫ The Spinning Field
A rotating tunnel of black plastic pipes spinning wildly around a central beam, turning every step into a fight for balance.
⚫ The Trenches
Deep slippery mud mounds where the only way forward is straight through the mess.
⚫ Traverse Wall Climb
Scale a huge wooden wall using scattered rock handholds before hauling yourself over the top.
⚫ The Stacks
Crawl through dark vertical pipes before climbing up through confined cylinders to escape.
⚫ The Sidewinder
A brutal traverse wall forcing competitors sideways across climbing holds while grip and arms begin to fail.
⚫ Window Wall
Leap, dive and change direction through openings built into towering wooden walls.
⚫ Rabbit Holes
A dark underground crawl through buried muddy tunnels where the challenge becomes mental as much as physical.

SCREAM FIELDS arrives at HELL & BACK - Saturday 6th June!

If you haven’t tried it before, Yoplait SKYR is a creamy Icelandic recipe, rich in protein with 0% fat. Made with skimmed milk, skimmed milk powder and lactic ferments (milk), it’s the ideal grab-and-go snack before or after taking on the course 💪

The Yoplait Ireland team will be onsite all day handing out samples to participants, so make sure to swing by and give it a try while you’re there 🙌
