Tough Mudder Yorkshire

Get ready for a splash of mud and a whole lotta heart! Our amazing Fishtank team is gearing up to take on the infamous Tough Mudder Yorkshire challenge in Skipton. Tankmates Danielle, Jacy, Tom, Joe, Amin, Emily, and Will are trading in their office attire for muddy overalls as they prepare to smash this brutal obstacle course.

After a lot of training from some of the team and a lot of ‘pretending it’s not happening’ from others, we can’t wait to see how everyone gets on this weekend!

Taking on the Tough Mudder 5k

With 14 obstacles to overcome over the 5k course, their physical and mental strength is sure to be challenged! No matter the distance, our brave teammates are ready to be pushed to their limits to support some incredible causes.

To make their challenge even more meaningful, our team members are fundraising for a variety of charities close to their hearts.

As amazing as the bragging rights are going to be after completing this course, there are bigger reasons for our amazing team’s participation in Skipton’s legendary Tough Mudder challenge – each of us is motivated by a personal reason and a desire to support a worthy cause.

Here’s a quick look at what’s driving our muddy determination:

  • Jacy: Running for Macmillan Cancer Support in memory of her sister Dion, who passed away from Ewing Sarcoma. Jacy wants to give back to the incredible support charities provided her family during their difficult time. Donation Link
  • Tom: Participating for Mind, a mental health charity, in honour of his friend “Captain Yorkshire” who lost his battle with mental health. Tom wants to raise awareness of the importance of accessible mental health resources. Donation Link
  • Danielle: Tackling Tough Mudder for Macmillan Cancer Support after losing her grandmother to cancer in July 2022. Danielle wants to honour her grandma and contribute to the fight against this devastating disease. Donation Link
  • Will: Diving into the mud on behalf of Mind, a mental health charity committed to making sure anyone with a mental health problem has somewhere to turn for advice and support. Donation Link

We’d be incredibly grateful for any support you can offer, whether it’s a donation or just a cheer as we pull ourselves over the 14 obstacles! Every contribution, whether big or small, helps these amazing charities continue their vital work.

We’re super proud of our team for their commitment to this event; see you all at the finish line!
