MacTuffX London : Twickenham, 30 May 2026

MacTuffX London at Twickenham on 30 May 2026 is a functional fitness racing event that combines running laps with ten specified strength and conditioning exercises. Entrants must be 18 years or older on the day of the event. Competitors can enter as an individual, a doubles pair, or a five-person relay team. In the relay format each team member completes two runs plus assigned Xercises.

Participants choose between two distance formats:

Classic: 10 x 400m runs
Double distance: 10 x 800m runs

The event program lists ten Xercises with set repetitions, carries or distances and gender-specific weights. Examples include an 80-rep alternating snatch, 80-rep kettlebell deadlift, 30-rep devil press, 250m Zercher carry, 200m bear crawl and slamball situps. Weight standards are specified separately for men and women. A LITE option is available for those who prefer reduced weights while competing alongside standard divisions.

Entry pricing varies by format and team size, with published fees for Solo, Doubles and Relay categories. Event results and performance data feed a leaderboard that is broken down by race, division, Xercise, gender and age group and is available live via smartphones, tablets and on-site screens.
