The National Park in Georgetown will host the KFC Fitness Challenge 2025 on Sunday, March 23rd. The event promises a day of intense competition and community engagement.
Coordinator Noshavayah King has emphasised that the event is “more than just a competition, it is a movement towards a stronger and healthier Guyana.”

This year’s challenge features male and female teams showcasing skill, agility, and resilience alongside a Masters (over 35) category, highlighting that “fitness has no age limit.”
The 2025 edition includes a new category, Joint Services, which is a “high-energy face-off” between Guyana’s military, police, and emergency services.
Over GY$2 million in prizes will be awarded, setting the stage for what King promises will be “bigger and better action.”

King thanked title sponsor KFC for continued support, highlighting the event’s popularity among athletes and fans. Spectator games will also be featured, offering attendees the chance to win prizes.
Finance controller Marlon Chetnarine noted that this is the ninth year of their involvement, stating that the event “gives Guyanese athletes a chance to compete in something very unique…every moment spent sweating in the sun is a nod to personal determination and stamina.”

Ayanna Watson, Commercial Manager of Sol Petroleum Guyana, added that “supporting this fitness aligns with our commitment to promoting healthier lifestyles and encouraging individuals to embrace fitness as a vital component of their lives.”
EcoFlow, Windjammer Hotel, Windsor Estates, Star Rentals, HJ 94.1 Boom FM, Trophy Stall, Survival Supermarket, and Genesis Fitness Gym also support the event.

Teams can win up to GY$600,000, with prizes awarded for individual event wins and podium finishes.

Events will start at 06:00h, followed by a break after two events, and then restart at 13:00h.
