Intro:

Action from the 38th annual Schermerhorn Prutmarathon where competitors race around a farmland-inspired track 20 minutes north of Amsterdam, the capital of Holland.

Script:

Every summer the Dutch village of Schermerhorn is the site for a unique event: the Prutmarathon. 

The race goes along the most unlikely of tracks, over farmland and grass occupied by cows 20 minutes north of Amsterdam. 

The land is divided into trenches and pipes that help drain the course of excess water. 

In the race such obstacles can prove tricky. 

The runners are sent on the track and try their best to beat the competition while running over the grass and through the muddy trenches.

The competition is divided into various groups, including juniors, seniors and veterans.

This year's Prutmarathon was the 38th edition of the event and brought the whole community together.

The village's firefighters helped out and supplied the outdoor showers, the mayor was the announcer and high school girls helped clean the competitors to raise funds.
