All for a mud cause
KIDS love getting pretty muddy – and now they can do it while raising money for a great cause!
For the first time this year, boys and girls are being invited to join Cancer Research UK’s Race for Life with a new event just for them.
Pretty Muddy Kids is a new exciting obstacle course. From scramble nets and space hoppers to mud chutes and muddy pools, children will face a range of fun and muddy obstacles to crawl under, clamber over and charge through.
There are 66 Pretty Muddy Kids events across the country to add to the traditional 5k, 10k and Pretty Muddy courses which thousands of women will take part in throughout the summer.
Jodie Murray, a Cancer Research UK event manager, says: “The obstacle course promises plenty of fun, thrills and spills and we hope children will rally their friends, family and schoolmates to sign up and make a splash for Cancer Research UK.
“Race for Life events are not competitive, and children can complete the Pretty Muddy Kids course at their own pace. It promises to be a fantastic event for the family and every muddy step will help to bring forward the day when all cancers are cured.”
The entry fee for Pretty Muddy Kids is £10 and is open to boys and girls aged from five to 12 years old, with a minimum height requirement of 1.2m. All children must be accompanied by a supervising adult, who have free entry to the event.
