Face up to assault course challenge at Preston's Avenham Park
Walkers enjoying a stroll down at Avenham Park in Preston may have noticed an assault course slowly taking shape.
Heroes, wearing their obligatory hero masks, will take on a five-mile mission to have fun. Tickets for the Hero Assault Course are already sold out but spectators are welcome. Participants who manage to complete the challenge will be rewarded with a photo - to prove they got to the end - and a special medal.

The course is fraught with danger so heroes will need to keep a lookout for The Black Masks, acrobatic bad guys patrolling the course, armed with Super Soakers.
A junior hero challenge also takes place at the weekend with youngsters facing a two-mile mission through Avenham Park and along the mighty River Ribble.
Face dress for both events is optional. Participants will be able to drop a £2 donation for charity Walking With The Wounded which supports wounded ex-servicemen and women in their transition from the Armed Forces.
