IDK were the speediest team, topping the men's competitive section with a time of 1 hr, 14 min, 12 sec just a few minutes ahead of the youth winners The A Team (1 hr, 17 min, 59sec). The Gundy Muddy Buddies were the fastest women team and the Mud Dogs won the mixed section.
It was a massive two days, with 92 adult and youth teams and 193 children's teams.
"Without the volunteers, the event wouldn't go ahead," 2019 Toughen Up president Brett Pischke said. Over 70 people helped run the two day event.
"It was amazing," Pischke said.
"The weather was brilliant."
The committee is still tallying up the funds raised from the day, which will go towards the local community.
