Video: Farmers get their freak on at Covert Farms obstacle race

Around 420 farmers came out to the 8th annual event on Sept. 21

The 2019 Home Hardware Freak’n Farmer brought competitors down to the dirty nitty gritty.

Around 420 farmers, and other fun-loving adults, registered and came out for the 8th annual obstacle race at Covert Farms, although not all of them made it through the course and across the finish line.

This year’s 34 obstacles saw the addition of a log roll to the race and a rework of the reservoir obstacle. Plenty of farmers ended up taking a swim as they tipped their platforms in their attempt to cross the water.
