Registration for North Devon Hospice’s Mission: Unbreakable is opening soon, and you won’t want to miss it! Get ready to push your limits, take on an unforgettable challenge, and be part of something truly incredible. Whether you're in it for the adventure, the achievement, or to support local hospice care, now’s the time to start preparing. Keep your eyes peeled – registration opens soon, and your mission is waiting!
Mission: Unbreakable is a commando course filled with tough challenges and obstacles. Scale heights, take a leap of faith, and tackle mud, fire, water and ice to call yourself an 'Unbreakable.'
Think this is your typical 'mud run' obstacle course? Think again! We've got the experts, the best in the business. Our 10km course is designed with 24 Commando Royal Engineer Regiment based at RMB Chivenor and the local landowners, who will also be there to encourage you on the day.
Break a sweat, make a difference. By taking part, you'll be giving a lifeline of care to people facing the toughest time of their lives. Your efforts will help someone to be wrapped up in hospice care, when facing a life-limiting illness like cancer.
Raise £80 or more before event day and earn an official Unbreakables Headband!
Every recruit who reaches this fundraising milestone will receive their official headband when they register on event day. Not only will you be ready to take on the mission in style, but you can also feel proud knowing that every pound raised helps North Devon Hospice continue providing vital care and support to local patients and families.
This is more than just an event – it's a mission. A mission to show what we're made of, and to stand by those who need us most.
Mission Unbreakable is not just a physical challenge; it’s a chance to test your limits while making a real difference to the lives of local people facing the toughest of times. By taking part and fundraising, you'll be helping provide vital care and support to patients and their families across our community.
Get the blood pumping and prepare your body for the immense task that lies ahead. The warm up will be led by Commandos from RMB Chivenor, who will put you through your paces!
A leg-draining minefield of tyres for you to hop through
This is a wade through waist-deep water. It'll be cold, it'll be slippery and you will be running up stream!
Crawling through a low tunnel, against the tide of a river coming in the other direction!
The autumn rain (plus a farmer's tractor!) will have made this stretch of bog especially thick and muddy. Your job is to crawl through it, underneath the barbed wire of course!
Drop to the floor soldier! Time to stay low and out of sight
When your hands are cold and your arms are sore, you'll be asked to engage your upper body strength and shimmy across our monkey bars. Watch out for the muddy landing below!
The commandos will make you flip these huge tractor tyres at least three times before passing
Just in case you get too cold, we thought you might like to run through some fire to warm up! Aren't we nice?!
A 40m plunge down a steep field will wake you up if you're feeling lethargic!
A trek through the knee-deep marsh land. A true energy-sapper when you least need it. Whatever you do, don't lose your shoe!
Face your fear and pass through our underwater tunnel. Take a deep breath and trust the Commandos to pull you through the other side.
A true test of mettle. Scramble to the top of a steep 100-metre slope where a Commando will be waiting to give you one stripe of face paint. Repeat three times to earn your full three stripes and continue the course.
A true leap of faith. Like your parachuting military guides for the day, you'll need to jump from our platform, aiming for the safety of the crash mat below. Listen as they teach you to drop and roll to absorb the impact
With every rung of this wall of netting, you will feel like you are taking one step forward and one step back. Don't lose your footing and remember to keep using your leg muscles
Ringing a bell is easy. It just so happens that our bell is located at the top of a rope that you will have to climb...
They say that an ice bath helps muscle recovery. So the final challenge will be to wade through chest-high water and ice. It's for your own benefit, believe us!
2024 was such an amazing experience and we captured some great photos of all our Unbreakables, available to see on our Facebook page.
And all our other sponsors who make this event possible.
