Why it feels different
What is Primal?
Primal is a fixed-format functional fitness race.
Eight stations, running in between, and a course designed to challenge how you move, how you think and how you hold your nerve when it counts.
It is built for people who take their training seriously – from first-time competitors to seasoned racers – with clear divisions so you can choose a level that pushes you without guessing.
Fixed course,
global comparison
The same architecture in every city, so your time in Dubai can be compared to your time in Riyadh, London or beyond.
Inclusive, not easy
Multiple divisions and team options mean there’s a place for you on the floor – but the standards stay high.
Tribe-led
Built around gyms, coaches and communities who care about real training, not gimmicks.
Upcoming Primals
Pick your city, pick your division, and get your crew ready.
