Muddy Kit wanted 4 top men and women to form a team to represent and promote their brand. This race acted as a Muddy Kit team trial with only the top 3 being guaranteed a place in their team. It is a well established course full of deep mud, barbed wire, water crossings, climbs and all other manner of weird and wonderful pain inducing obstacles.. Because of the rewards to the leaders, it was an out and out race to the line.
Despite being his first race back since suffering a calf injury, Shaun Chew had a blinding performance to finish in 1st place, no doubt spurred on by the thoughts of free kit and a place in the team. James Fent and Luke Wallwork also entered and both had great runs especially since all three Barlickers only found out about this race a little over a week ago. Results may not be published, but the Barlick boys all finished in the top 3rd of the field.
