Pleasant Prairie Mud Run

A Down & Dirty 5K Obstacle Course Run!

Mud Run Logo Saturday, September 13

First Wave at 9:00am

How "tough" is it?

As tough as you want it to be. The course is designed for everyone. It is perfect for recreational runners competing in their first 5K race and still challenging enough for the competitive athlete. The course uses the grass, dirt, & gravel trails found in and around Prairie Springs Park. The course is flat and has fun obstacles including: water crossings, tire runs, hay bay climbs, tunnel crawls, slip n slide, and the famous mud pit. The course will be challenging enough for the elite but still manageable for beginners.

Plus: Mud Run JR (7-12yr olds) and Lil' Mudder (4-7yr olds) Races

Three Waves:

  • Pleasant Prairie Mud Run Challengers wave: the competitor who wants to be in the front of the pack
  • Women ONLY Wave: these waves are dedicated to the ladies
  • Friends & Family wave: families & friends who want to run the challenge together

Registration:

Thru August 22: $35
