Beastly challenge: Competitors tackle obstacle course on the banks of Loch Ness

More than 1,200 competitors this weekend braved one of Scotland’s toughest physical challenges on the scenic banks of Loch Ness. The Prime Four Beast Race saw racers clamber through thick mud, tackle a wall climb and scramble under cargo nets. Jono Buckland, director at organisers Firetrail Events, said: “This is one of the toughest challenges, physically and mentally, a truly beastly challenge.”
