Mud Races in England: Raw Video

It's one of Britain's finest sights, to see a motley bunch of people stampede across the Blackwater River after New Year, waist deep in thick black mud in the name of charity.

This is the second time in 2009 that the Maldon Mud has been held. The 2008 event was eventually held on January 4, 2009 as a result of sea tides which prevented the 2008 race to be held.

So, there's beer involved, right? Like either the winner or the loser gets free pints all night or something. Please, reassure my restless mind and tell me that all of these people were rewarded with a warm shower and a beer.
