Applications are now open for a thrill seeker’s dream job — chief obstacle tester for Tough Mudder.

The American-based race organiser, which puts on more than 130 races in 11 countries each year, has decided to employ its first five obstacle testers in the UK to help with the development of race equipment.

They will be responsible for giving feedback on obstacles, suggesting improvements and helping decide which ones make it into Tough Mudder races in 2019.

Typical employment skills that are not required for the part-time job are an understanding of Microsoft Office and the ability to sit at a desk, it adds.
