So at the weekend the moment finally came for me to head to Finsbury Park , London, join the #PinkArmy and run 5K for Cancer Research's Race For Life Series, Pretty Muddy.

The clue was in the title but 3K into this pink obstacle course I was wondering where this mud was. It soon came in abundance.

Mud slides, pools of muddy water, tunnels leading to more (you guessed it) mud and even having a group of unsuspecting "helpers" shovel mud onto us, meant that the mud was completely unavoidable.

It was lots of fun though. A well sign posted obstacle course, around a beautiful park and so naturally, I was delighted to be getting muddy for money, helping to raise cash for Cancer Research the only way I know how; running about!

There's still plenty of time for you to donate or sign up to a race near you so join in if you dare. You'll get a pretty medal to go with your pretty muddy hand and well deserved it shall be too.
