This Saturday sees the first ever Toughest UK taking place in Pippingford Park in East Sussex. Run247 went along during race build week and Thomas Blanc had a chat with Andreas Sjolin from the build team about why they’re bringing Toughest to the UK and what is in store for the lucky participants. They reassure you that there will be mud.
Thomas also had the chance to look around some of the obstacles. And with 40 obstacles packed into only 8k there were plenty to look at. He's done a video guide to 10 of them.
Good luck to all the participants on Saturday and check back with us next week to see our event review.
