Tough Mudder is a hardcore obstacle course testing strength, stamina and camaraderie.
The five Maltese who have been training hard for the past months are Luke Dimech, 34, Matthew Saliba 32, Amy Cachia 24, Leonard Padovani 23, and Simon Xuereb 33. They will be joined by Guillaume Boulais a 30 year old from France. All six are set and determined to make the 12 mile courses as a group and cross the finishing line together and not individually.
Only 78% of participants in the Tough Mudder challenge usually manage to finish this challenge. The courses are designed by the British Special Forces.
The obstacles set along the challenge include dives in ice cold waters, running through fire and electric shocks and other severe obstacles.
The maltese team: Tough Mudder 1565, is being sponsored by bet90.
Through their participation, the team is raising funds for UK charity Help for Heroes which helps severely injured servicemen and servicewomen.
