This event is open to anyone over the age of 18 and involves a lap or two of a specially designed 5K course, complete with around 30 manmade and natural obstacles.

Melvin Dewart the event organiser says “It will be a gruelling test of strength, stamina and mental determination, the idea is to encourage team-work and camaraderie among participants.

“We have chosen Cancer Focus Northern Ireland as our nominated charity this year as it is a local charity and cancer has affected every family in some way or another.”
