Hundreds of people took part in the annual Pretty Muddy 5k race – tackling some truly tricky obstacles on their way round the course.
Set in Preston’s Moor Park, the event saw runners make their way around a specially designed, mud-filled course.
Our photographer Neil Cross was on hand to capture all the action.
