Looking for your next fitness thrill? This May, a world-first obstacle sprint that’s as intense as it is short is hitting the sandy beaches of the Gold Coast—and it’s calling all high-achievers, speed demons, and adrenaline junkies from Sydney and beyond!
 
If you haven’t heard of YOHKA yet, get ready to add it to your fitspo radar. This fast-paced, urban fitness sport is designed for a new generation of athletes and fans who crave speed, energy, and a serious challenge—all served up with DJ beats and festival vibes. And the headline event? A 100-metre obstacle race dubbed the world’s fastest.
 
Inspired by the fitness racing element soon to debut in the LA 2028 Olympics, this course isn’t just a test of physical prowess—it’s a full-blown, high-octane experience. With 12 obstacles packed into a 100m sprint, it’s been designed to humble even the fittest of the fit. As Brand Manager and ex-athlete Todd Liubinskas puts it, “100 metres may not sound like much, but with 12 gruelling obstacles designed to test your speed, agility and power, many will be humbled.”
 
Taking place on the sunny Gold Coast on the 23-25 May, The YOHKA Oceania World Series is bringing together elite-level competition and festival energy, featuring two headline formats: the 100m Stampede and a team chase event called Pursuit. Think: chaos, camaraderie, and competition—all rolled into one. And yes—there are cash prizes for the top three contenders daily, so if you’ve got energy to burn and something to prove, this might just be your moment.
 
YOHKA is your chance to be part of something new, bold, and globally relevant. It's the kind of race you’ll want to say you were there for—especially with the Olympic inspiration woven right into its DNA.
