There is never a dull moment at Hole Park and this weekend it was the return for the 5th year of Dirty Rotten Scrambles extreme mud run, who laid out a spectacular course around the estate setting 360 participants the Challenge of who could complete it first in varying distance classes, 10k, one lap, being the most popular. Runners had to negotiate their way across a number of water obstacles and here they are swimming across the fishponds in the park.
The organiser Sam Winkworth was delighted with the feedback which particularly commented on the beauty of the landscape through which runners have the opportunity of competing.
Thanks to those who participated this year; Dirty Rotten Scrambles will be back at Hole Park in June 2025.
