Text graphic reads “The Ignition Games,” with “IGNITION” in large orange letters with a flame effect. Above are small BME and moon logos on a dark background. A group of people exercise outdoors, carrying heavy bags on their shoulders while walking down a street. The image is black and white, with participants in athletic clothing. Woman in a pink sports bra and colorful shorts intensely using a gym machine, pulling a handle overhead with effort. Her ponytail is flying upward, and she appears focused and determined in a gym setting. Four people are running in a street race as others look on from the sidewalk. The scene is in black and white. Two women lead, followed closely by another woman and a man. A man with tattoos lifts a heavy dumbbell while lunging at the gym, showing intense effort. Another person with long hair stands blurred in the background. A man celebrates with raised arms while another person in athletic gear does a burpee in the foreground at a gym with rowing machines. A man holds a dumbbell overhead while speaking to a group of people in athletic wear in front of a whiteboard with notes in a gym setting.

Wow — what an amazing experience. This was my first multi‑discipline contest, and I’ll admit I arrived feeling pretty nervous, not entirely sure what I’d signed myself up for. The team who greeted us were fantastic: friendly, welcoming, and clear in explaining how everything worked. From there, I was tested to destruction. Thankfully, Gabz (my daughter) kept me on track — make sure at least one of you is organised! A special mention to our judge/ref as well: very encouraging, genuinely a good man. Would I do it again? Absolutely. Thank you for a great experience. Phill O’Gara
