On the 17th August I will be getting muddy with #TeamOrange and pushing ourselves to the limit at the ultimate obstacle race. This is a challenge like no other, a 7km mud run course which has 7 different zones on the course, each designed and built by a different obstacle race event company - hence, 'The 7'!
Your fundraising could make all the difference...
