Commercial property professionals are being encouraged to take part in the annual Colliers "Mudathon" fundraiser, with a tougher, muddier course awaiting participants in Essex this September.
The annual challenge, which involves participants completing a 5 kilometre amphibious obstacle course, has raised more than £100,000 for charity since its inception in 2015.
Last year more than 500 people forming 41 teams battled the mud, muck and mire in Dorking, while nearly 3,000 participants haven taken part over the year from a variety of companies.
This year's nominated charities are Spinal Muscular Atrophy UK, Prostate Cancer UK and men’s mental health campaign Two Pints Deep. The £85 ticket price for this year's event in Brentwood includes, among other things, access to hot water washdown areas and heated changing tents, and a post-race networking event.
Fay McEwan, chair of Colliers’ charitable initiative Colliers Gives UK and associate director, said in a statement: "Mudathon has been a fantastic success so far but we’d like to extend the invitation for more to participate and make it even better.
"Last year we had teams from 41 firms and would like to provide other companies in the sector a chance for their people to get involved."
"This is a truly unique annual event in the commercial property calendar. It’s a chance to network in a totally different environment, a day of fun, challenge and connection as well as raising significant funds for charity."
