My name is Owen, and I work for the Street Scene department at South Kesteven District Council. Along with seven of my colleagues, I will be taking part in a 15K Tough Mudder as part of our ongoing fitness journey.

Five of the eight members of our team are ex-military, and because of this we have chosen to support a charity that is very close to our hearts. This event is not only a personal challenge for us, but also an opportunity to raise funds and awareness for a cause that means a great deal to our team.

The event will take place on Sunday 5th July at Belvoir Castle. We have all been training hard and will continue to push ourselves in preparation for the challenge.

Any support or donations would be greatly appreciated and will go towards helping a charity that supports causes important to our team.
