Heroes Mud Run

The Heroes Mud run is a 5K (3.1 mile +/-) run over cross-country terrain. Along the way there are over 12 different obstacles to overcome and maneuver and lots and lots of mud.

Our Little Heroes Kid’s Course is just a “Little” version of the fun. Designed for the “average” 8 year old…the race can accommodate ages 4-13. It contains 6-8 obstacles, none of which require swimming or any height of note. It is approximately 2k and parents are welcome to run alongside their children. However, our obstacles are not built for adults, you will not be able to complete the obstacles but you can be there to aide your child.

The Heroes Mud Run proudly supports our local Heroes. A portion of the proceeds of the Heroes Mud Run will benefit the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation, in conjunction with local firefighters and the Heart of a Marine Foundation, proudly serving all branches and members of the United States Armed Forces. Both organizations are 501( c ) charities. Come show your support by participating, volunteering or cheering your Hero on.
