Deadly Dozen: London (September 2026)

The Deadly Dozen track race involves 12 x 400m runs, which they refer to as Journeys, and 12 x exercise stations, which they refer to as Labours. The Labours only use bodyweight (BW), kettlebell (KB), dumbbell (DB) and weight plate (WP) exercises. Therefore, race training is incredibly accessible in any setting, whether in a gym, at home or outdoors. Ultimately, an individual could effectively train for the event with just a pair of kettlebells.
