Fanta is bringing Sandstorm back, and they're wondering have you got the bottle? The ultimate beach run course is introducing a unique element this year and we know you're going to love it.
The five kilometer beach run will be touring the nation to find the most adventurous thrill-seekers across Ireland with their first challenge taking place at Dollymount Strand in Dublin on June 9th.
The second run will be taking place on Ballyheigue Beach in County Kerry on July 14th, and we're sure there's going to be plenty of competition from both counties.
Fanta Sandstorm’s bravest runners will face ten obstacle trials including the tyre mound, a 20ft net crawl, hurdles, a 10ft foot high wall, monkey bars and tubes to name a few - all designed to test mental and physical agility.
Runners and spectators will get the chance to sample every Fanta flavour throughout both weekends, with the new Fanta 'Pink Grapefruit Zero' bursting with real fruit juice and offering ultimate zero-sugar refreshment.
