Big Sur's Mud Run 
Welcome to the 4th Presentation 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Greetings!

Welcome to the 2009 Mud Run!  We're expecting a record field this year and have dug a fourth mud pit to add to your...enjoyment.  We are anticipating our first sell-out of the event with 750 individual runners and 150 teams! In an effort to make the day fun for the entire family, we'll be hosting a "Youth Fun during the Mud Run" event  just outside Freeman Stadium from 9:00 am to noon that will offer obstacle courses, games and other fun events.

 

With race day only 10 days away, here are some things you need to know.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  • Attention Mud Run team captains! If you are planning on running with the team you created, you need to add yourself as a member of that team!  Because one person can captain mulitple teams, being a captain does not automatically make you a member. You need to register as a member to be part of your team.

    .
  • Please confirm now that you are indeed registered.  Go to the Mud Run confirmation link by clicking HERE and once there, enter last name only.  You can confirm all your information and find out what your bib number is. This will make race day pickup easier for you (and us!).  If you feel you are registered but don't see your name, email [email protected] or call 831.625.6226.

  • This year will be instituting a 4 wave start, with the first two waves consisting of individual runners and the last two waves of teams. Individuals with bibs 1-300 will be in the first wave and bibs 301 and up in the second waveTeams with bibs 1500 - 1560 will be in the third wave, and bibs 1561 and up in the final wave.  There will be 10 minutes between waves and our drill instructors will keep you warmed up during this time. 

  • Our timing device will be the Chronotrack D-tag.  The D-tag will be affixed to your bib number along with instructions on how to attach it to your shoe. Remember...no tag, no time!

  • Coming from out of the area and looking for a way to save on gas?  Sign up for PickupPal, an online carpool service connecting drivers and passengers.  Go to PickupPal.com and input your information to be matched with others from your area.  It's a great way to meet fellow mud runners while saving money and the environment at the same time!

  • There will be a "Locals Bib Pick-up" on Friday, March 27th at the Big Sur Marathon office from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM.  The office is located in the Carmel Rancho Shopping Center across from Cornucopia Market.  Take your first right off Carmel Valley Road on to Carmel Rancho Blvd. and then an immediate left into the shopping center.  We are 200 yards back on the right.  Everyone else will pick up on Saturday, March 28th at Freeman Stadium on the CSUMB campus. Visit www.bigsurmudrun.org for driving instructions.
