It's the famous 'Tough Guy' competition and against all odds we manged to survive with just a few scrapes, cuts, bruises, cramped muscles, twisted ankles, nettle stings, infections... "Tetanus anyone?"

The Tough Guy competition is sort of like an 8 mile long army assault course. There are a wide variety of obstacles to deal with which you'll need to climb, swim, jump, dodge, slide, and run through. If you don't like mud, barbwire, stinging nettles, narrow tunnels, hights, or swamps, then you might struggle with this very good natured event.

"At one point I fell off this high rope section, bounced off a hay bale then landed face down in the blackist, stinky-ist swamp I'd ever seen. I wouldn't have minded so much but my mouth was wide open at the time..." Todd O'Neill (your editor)

We like the Tough Guy competition a lot and we'll definitely be doing it again!
