Perton, UK. 27th July 2013. 10 km & 8km events are held today, the 17km contest will take place tomorrow. Nettle Warrior contest is the summer version of the 8 mile Tough Guy winter event, and although essentially the same course there are notable differences – especially the very tall Stinging Nettles.
