A group of eight personal trainers have completed an 11-mile obstacle course to raise money for an armed forces charity.<\/p>\n
The participants from Forfar and Arbroath collected over £3,000 for Help for Heroes (H4H) by undertaking the challenge, the Forfar Dispatch reports.<\/p>\n
Carey Allen was one of those people taking part and she stated: "We tackled underwater and underground tunnels, walking the plank, artic baths as well as electrocution, fire and falling from great heights. We managed to complete the event as a team."<\/p>\n
Part of the reason Ms Allen wanted to raise cash for the military charity is because her husband has been injured twice while serving on the front line in Afghanistan.<\/p>\n
She added the challenge to clear the course had been as much a mental issue as a physical one.<\/p>\n
Charity boot camps and a barbecue were also held in an effort to boost the money they received.<\/p>\n
