Our bespoke scoring system allows us to go way past regular distance accumulator challenges, providing variety and interest to your training week after week.
Our challenges draw inspiration from some of the world's toughest fitness tests, including Special Forces selection. This ensures a grounded approach for a comparable attempt.
With no race-day crowds to cheer you on they provide a real and raw opportunity to test and further the limits of your resilience.
Customise each challenge to suit your personal level of fitness, from novice all the way to very advanced.
By embracing the discomfort of physical pursuit, we immerse ourselves in stressful environments in a controlled setting. This allows us to get comfortable being uncomfortable, strengthening our mental strength and resilience, helping us better deal with the stresses and pressures of everyday life.
Hi, I'm Terry Rosoman, Rokman Founder. We can often find ourselves trapped in the vicious cycles of life. Personally, I was stuck in a cycle of working hard and then partying even harder. Fast food, drinks, and drugs became my go-to comforts, leading me to obesity, poor health, and mental distress. One day, I hit rock bottom and decided I couldn't continue down this destructive road. I took a leap and signed up for my first challenge. These challenges became my lifeline, giving me direction, purpose, and the motivation to turn my life around.
Seven years later, I saw many others struggling with stress, anxiety, and depression. Drawing from my own journey of transformation, I realised I had a message to share. And that's how Rokman was born.

I love the challenges. They are just right to push me outside of my comfort zone. The support from fellow competitors is awesome as the focused goal of the group is to challenge each other to be better.

Absolutely love the Rokman challenge series. I like the way only one activity brief is released each week as it allows you to focus and fully engage with the challenge, there is always great support in the facebook group... will definitely be coming back for more!
Adam Badat
I love a challenge and this was the perfect fit. It was a brand new start for me after mostly gym based bodybuilding style training for years. It’s really improved my cardio and functional ability. The team are very supportive and responsive and the challenges are tough but fun.
Graham Berry
I’ve just completed the High Walk challenge (UK Special Forces) and loved it. It changed-up my normal running regime, challenged me physically, pushed me mentally as I wanted to succeed and did, I got sore legs, a pip and certificate to be proud of and a true sense of achievement.
Josie Cheshire
I found this a challenge but achievable. It's made me realise I'm made of tougher stuff than I thought. The Team Rokman Facebook group is also encouraging and everyone is super friendly. I've already signed up for another month.
Steve Sherman
Good challenges, able to fit in around training and work, all efforts scored whatever your level. Great support from the community. Nice to do something different.
Andy Laws
The challenges was great, you could choose a level that suited you but still pushed you as you were trying to reach times and targets within your level. Would recommend this to anyone who is looking to push themselves that bit harder. The chat and motivation within the group was good and really helped push you along.
Graham Taylor

How does it work?
How does it work?
How long do we have to complete each challenge?
We recommend that you complete each challenge within 7-days from the date of issue. However, we understand that life can often get in the way, so that’s why accept submissions up until 7-days after the end of the series.
What is someone cheats?
We do our very best to weed out any cheating by asking people to evidence their challenge attempts. However, due to the nature of this being an online challenge series, it’s not 100% fool proof.We have to take everyone’s submissions at face-value. If we can confidently identify people either cheating or doing the challenge incorrectly, we will notify the competitor privately via email.At the end of the day, the leaderboard is just a bit of competitive fun. These challenges are personal tests of resilience. If people decide to cheat, they’re only cheating themselves. If you concentrate on yourself and give your best honest performance then you can hold your head high at the end of the day.
Do you offer refunds?
Unfortunately, we unable to offer refunds on challenge series entry, however, we do offer transfers. If you’re unable to take part in this challenge series, let us know and we can transfer you on to an alternative series.
Can I use a treadmill?
All running challenges are designed to undertaken outside, however, if you are unable to go outside we will accept treadmill entries. If participating on a treadmill, the treadmill must be set at a 2.5 degree angle.
