2010 Winter Olympic Champion Amy Williams today began her final acclimatisation as she prepares to take on one of the most testing endurance challenges ever to come to Scotland. "Tough Mudder" is an army assault course that takes competitors through earth, wind and fire, and ahead of competing in the debut Scottish event this weekend Amy ditched the traditional post-race ice bath for an outdoor, pre-race mud bath this morning

Sponsored by Dyno-Rod the drain's experts, Tough Mudder events place an emphasis on teamwork rather than finishing times, and entrants are encouraged to help their fellow "Mudders" along the 12 mile, army-style assault course to build a spirit of camaraderie amongst competitors

The weekend's event takes place at Drumlanrig Castle, Scotland with the next event set at the Cholmondeley Estate, Cheshire in November. Prospective participants and spectators can find out more by visiting the Dyno-Rod Tough Mudder Facebook page at: http://www.facebook.com/DynoRodUK
