Great event well organised. My niece and I thoroughly enjoyed it and would definitely recommend. Plenty of mud on the way round, although we would have both liked a bit more before the end of the race, we didn’t want it to end!

Another fantastic experience, a few years ago i took part in both 6k and 10k mud runs, this year I brought my granddaughter with me, she was a bit unenthusiastic but since taking part she wants to do another 1 so I think it was an all round success. My sister also took part with us and she has said she will do it again maybe get our other sister to join 😁 would definitely recommend anyone to try it at least once, we laughed most of the way round very therapeutic. We didnt run though but enjoyed it just as much. Thank you all for another wonderful experience.

1.5k with a four year old. So lovely to runaround the lake and castle. Left the muddy swamp until the end which was ideal with a child. We made lots of new friends on the way around.

6k - lots of hills and mud, absolute challenge to get through the sticky mud. Felt amazing for completing. Will have to try the 10k next year!

Organiser's description

--- Bookings for this event are on hold due to ongoing concerns regarding Coronavirus. The race organiser will be in touch with you in due course if you have made a booking for this event. ---

Eastnor Castle is the home of the Land Rover test centre, and over 60 miles of trails wind through the deer park and woodland. These man-made trenches and troughs exaggerate the natural terrain to give a year round muddy experience, and maintained with additional water, these mud pits are just as lovely in the Summer as they are in the Winter!

We will be making the most of the terrain as it lies, picking the muddiest trails the Estate has to offer. There will be a few natural obstacles - fallen trees to navigate, gullies to cross and of course, lots of mud to roll in! And in between the mud, there are some good hills. Everyone is very welcome to come and take part in our 10k, 6k, 3k or 1.5k mini mud bath.
