Maldon Race a Success once again

Maldon Race a Success once again

On Sunday 24th April 2022 the famous Maldon Mud Race was once again an awesome event.

A race which started as a dare back in 1973 for a regular at the Queen's Head Pub is now a famous tradition which this year attracted around 300 participants raising money for charity.

Comedian Jo Brand started the race and cheered on her daughter Maisi Bourke who tackled the event alongside her boyfriend Alfie Richer to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support and the Maldon Mud Race charities. They braved the run in memory of Maisi’s uncle Bill and her mum’s close friend and fellow comedian Sean Lock, who both died from cancer last year.

Matt and Dom Sellers newlyweds braved the mud in their wedding ourfits having tied the knot earlier in the day.

Jason Taylor won the race in two minutes and 48 seconds and Sam Jamieson was runner up just two seconds later.

We would like to say congratulations and well done to all of those who completed the race this year.

For all of those with a competitive nature the Maldon Mud Race is scheduled to take next year on 14th May 2023 CLICK HERE to find out more or even better to sign up to start raising money for some exceptional charities.
