Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Maldon mud race" in English language version.
Competitors set off at low tide from one bank and wade or swim through the waist high water to the other side. They then have to negotiate 200 metres of deep, sticky, mud along one side of the bank, some attempting to run, others propelling themselves along on their stomachs. Caked in mud, they then make their way back across the water to the other bank.(Registration required.)
