ABOUT
BUILDING FASTER HUMANS.
ERGRUN exists because endurance sport needed a new test. One that was simple, measurable and honest.
WHERE ERGRUN CAME FROM
ERGRUN started with a simple question: what is the best way to test an endurance athlete's engine?
Running tests one dimension. Rowing tests another. Cycling tests another. Each discipline rewards specific adaptations and penalises others. None of them, alone, gives you the full picture.
Concept2 machines changed the equation. They produce objective, comparable data. They are accessible. They are used by elite athletes and beginners alike. And they test capacity without requiring years of technical skill development.
ERGRUN combines running with all three Concept2 machines — SkiErg, RowErg and BikeErg — to create a multi-discipline endurance race that is simple to understand, hard to game and honest in its results.
THE MISSION
To build a race that tests the engine. Not the technique. Not the equipment. Not the strategy. The engine.
SIMPLICITY
The format is easy to understand. Run. Ski. Row. Ride. Repeat.
MEASURABILITY
Concept2 machines produce objective data. Results are precise and comparable.
ACCESSIBILITY
No technical barriers. If you can run and operate a Concept2 machine, you can race ERGRUN.
HONESTY
The race reveals where you are strong and where you lose time. There is nowhere to hide.
WHERE WE ARE
ERGRUN is in its early stages. The race format has been designed and tested in training environments. The first pilot event takes place on 27 September 2026.
The live timing system is being developed. The athlete experience is being refined. The first public event will be announced once the pilot has been completed and evaluated.
This is the beginning.
