Online registrations are still open for the 2018 annual Flemington Mud Run, to be held at Lake Station, Lake Rd Waipukurau on Sunday.
The annual event is run as a fundraiser by the Flemington School Parents and Friends Group, to ensure that kids at the school get sporting equipment, extra learning support, up to date technology, get to go on camp and the books they require throughout the year. There will be three courses this year - 2.5km, 5km and 10km.
Lake Station is 20 minutes south of Waipukurau, with lots of parking. Barbecue, baking and drinks will be available but take cash - there is no eftpos available.
Costumes are encouraged. The team at H&T Agronomics have stumped up with cash for the best efforts and the prizes are:
Best Dressed Team - winner $150
Best Dressed Team - runner up $75
Best Dressed Individual - winner $50
Best Dressed Individual - runner up $25
Get creative - the judging will be done on "before" costumes rather than "after" for obvious (muddy) reasons.
Children under 7 must be accompanied by an adult at all times on the run. Shoes must be worn and the organisers definitely recommend taking along clean clothes.
