Katie Price competes in the X Runner Challenge with Leandro Penna
|
She's made a living out of being glamorous, but yesterday Katie Price proved she could get down and dirty with the best of them as she took part in a gruelling fitness challenge.
Displaying impressive fitness levels, Price pounded the pathways with every other athlete, dragging herself through dirty ditch water and completing the course caked in mud.
The mother-of-three was taking part in the charity X Runner challenge in Brailsford, Derbyshire, with on-off boyfriend Leandro Penna.

Taking the plunge: Price looked alarmed as she lost her footing and fell into dirty water
The pair made a formidable fitness team as they pushed through the course.
At one point Price lost her footing and fell into a ditch filled with filthy water, finishing the course covered in mud.
A glimmer of her trademark glamour was still visible though - bright orange nail polish which could be seen on her mud-caked hands.
Penna and Price supposedly split last autumn, but the pair have been spotted putting on displays of affection in recent weeks.

This month Price finally became an official single woman again after waiting 14 months for her divorce from Alex Reid.
Ironically, it took longer for the couple to divorce than they had actually been married.
The divorce was granted on the grounds of Reid's 'unreasonable behaviour', but it will be another four weeks before it is finalised with a decree absolute.
Despite her protestations that she is not in a relationship, Price has done little to dispel speculation suggesting otherwise.
The day after she and ex-husband Reid were granted a decree nisi at London's High Court, Price was seen cuddling up to Argentine model Penna in a private box at the HPA Gaucho International Polo at London's O2 Arena.

She may have looked exhausted, but Price still managed to bring a touch of glamour to her ensemble with bright orange nail polish, which was clearly visible on her muddy hands
Price started dating Penna in March 2010 - just six weeks after announcing her split from Reid after 11 months of marriage.
They originally dated for six months, with Price even getting a tattoo of his name on her ankle, before splitting last autumn.
However, they've frequently been photographed putting on displays of affection together since January.
When asked about their relationship on Daybreak earlier this month, she said: 'No I'm single.
'But he's still around but he's one of these people who when we go clay pigeon shooting and when I win he's very touchy and I'm like "get off Leo". So no, it's a laugh and he is about but I am single.'
