HUNDREDS of intrepid competitors headed to Horsham at the weekend for a muddy challenge.

The annual edition of the Tough Mudder event was held at Holmbush Farm in Crawley Road.

Participants faced a range of obstacles across courses of a variety of distances.

Organisers describe the event as a "fitness and teamwork challenge like you've never seen before".

The classic 8-10 mile run contained 25 muddy obstacles and challenges.

There was also a 5km version with 13 challenges.

And a one mile "mini mudder" course for children aged between 7 and 12 was held.
