Mini Mud Run
Mud runs are a fantastic kid’s charity run to take part in and there are a number of events taking place in the UK, designed for families, that you can sign up for. Ranging from easy to intense, mud runs consist of a race and a series of obstacles which are conveniently in the middle of, or over, a huge muddy ditch. Prepare to get covered in mud, water and sweat as you challenge yourself to complete the course. The beauty of this type of kid’s charity run is that each obstacle challenges a different part of your body and will test your level of endurance. As you are focused on the obstacles, the distance that you need to run is broken down into small bursts which make it almost easier to cover. Whether it is balancing on a wooden log over a ditch, swinging on a rope and landing in thick muddy water or crawling under a net in a muddy pool, the running will seem to be the easy part.
