Brave staff members from Macphie, the Scottish food ingredients manufacturer, have raised £1,355 for a cancer charity by running a gruelling obstacle race.
They are donating the funds to Bowel Cancer UK after running the Banchory Beast Race.
Part 10k race, part mud-drenched obstacle course, the Banchory Beast Race has taken place for the past three years, with Macphie always entering a team.
R&D technologist Zoe Smart was the fastest runner from the company with a time of one hour 17 minutes, making her the 25th fastest woman overall.
Michael McDonald, communications manager at Macphie, said: “There’s a real team spirit at Macphie and this was clearly evident at the Beast Race when you have 18 employees from various departments in the business pulling together to get round a gruelling 10k obstacle course! They are all mad, but they raised a terrific amount for a brilliant cause!”
