2nd time at The Wild Mud Run 10k and again loved it. Went for an early wave this time and found it much more enjoyable. Going early meant not having to queue for obstacles even on lap 2. Loads of people in the later waves so I could see it getting busy out there. No real technical obstacles, more of a fast paced OCR. The mud gets thicker with every wave that goes through, so if your in the final wave I imagine it can get a bit slower and tougher out there. Most of the marshals were friendly and helpful and free phots is always a good thing. In all a great event especially if you are new to the sport or more of a runner looking for something a bit different.

I did this race with a group of 14 friends yesterday morning. It was well organised, easy to find and other than the carpark being too far from the registration (because I forgot my bag!) the organisers couldn't have done a lot more in terms of organising.

It was a mud/OCR based on a 5km loop so you could do 5km or go around again making it the full 10km, which we need.

I realise it is called a mud run but wading through the mud for over 1km in a row I felt to be a little too easy for the organisers and in my opinion the course would have benefitted from a little less mud and a few more obstacles, especially for those going round twice.

That being said, the hills, streams, rivers were a great setting for getting very wet and muddy and having a lot of fun with friends. The water was very cold but well marshalled by volunteers and I would definately recommend this to a novice mud runner or thrill seeker, just the stretch of mud going round twice was a little boting perhaps the second time round...but thats just my opinion. 

Definately one to do with a group of friends and was a reasonable area for friends and family to perhaps see you doing approximately 20% of thr course for support.
