There were two events - the Deerstalker, a "5 km" (yeah right!) and the Mighty Deerstalker at "10 km". We had a few other friends doing it this year as well, including Mhairi.
If you're interested, there are more photos, our places etc at www.themightydeerstalker.com
The setting. The weather was much nicer than last year. 
Doesn't she look nice! Let's see if she's still smiling at the end. 
The start line for the Deerstalker. The race begins with all 500 entrants charging towards a wall of haybales. Oh, and did I mention that you're supposed to dress in tweed? 
Nearly there, just the final bit of uphill finish to go! And still smiling. 
The last obstacle. Now the final dash to the finish. The guy in the left of the photo doesn't look so great - do you think maybe Sylvia pulled out a cheeky Hopoate move under that net? 
My turn. A head torch is required for the Mighty. 
We had to run through this. 
And that. 
Nearly there... with an explosive exit from the net, I managed to overtake 3 people in the last 20 m. 
Flatmate finishers.

Well done guys! Weather looked almost tropical ;-) So impressed you can run and smile at the same time ... I'm just not that co-ordinated.
That looks like great fun!! We'll suggest to add some obstacle course to the Mt terako Challenge for next year!!! That would make it extremely extreme!
