It’s amazing to see what the MUDGIRL community is capable of. Let's take it even further together!
This race is an introduction to obstacle courses and aims at combining athleticism and fun. Many of our participants are not very sports oriented, however, they really enjoy themselves at our race! We promise, you will love your experience at MUDGIRL.
Whether it’s a personal challenge or a friend convinced you to embark on this journey, you are here for a noble cause: the fight against breast cancer.
Therefore, you will surpass yourself, sweat, have a few (small) aches, and finally, raise your arms when you cross the finish line... as part of the #PinkArmy!
We can promise you that when the medal is around your neck, you will feel like the proudest woman in the world. But before that, you will have to face the mud and the big slide!
Hence, there is no excuse to turn around on race day. Leaving your comfort zone and conquering this race with your friends will create memories for a lifetime!
On and off the race the Mudgirls are a real Pinkarmy ready to help themselves!
Whether you have a simple question, some doubts, the wish to get an opinion from a former participant, to know a little more about how to prepare for this race... whatever your question is, the whole MUDGIRL Community is here for you on this Facebook page.
The world of obstacle racing is traditionally a very masculine sport. This situation can be intimidating for women who are starting in the sport. Thus our run adheres to the following mission statement: MUDGIRL is an enjoyable and accessible experience for all women to feel empowered and comfortable amongst their girlfriends and girl squads. The goal of our event is for women to share a joyful day with friends while raising funds for a foundation fighting against an important cause to help women: breast cancer. :)
We decided to make it a women's race as we wanted to see if offering a safe space for women would help promote female participation in obstacle racing. Our results so far suggest it does. Our obstacle courses have been quite successful, suggesting to us that perhaps a women-only course is a step in the right direction of promoting or initiating more female participation into the world of obstacle courses.
Thus, though the race is open to all genders, each registrant must decide whether their participation helps to achieve the mission of a safe space for people who identify as female to compete. We will not deny anyone access to the race and leave it up to each registrant to make their own determination about whether it is appropriate for them to participate given the aforementioned mission.
Please understand that this project was not created to sideline men, but rather to allow women to experience a personal and doable challenge. We obviously encourage men to come support their loved ones to help them feel empowered, challenged, safe, and accomplished. We also encourage men to volunteer. We firmly believe that men and women should work as allies for equality in all domains, including the world of sports.
At the end of the day, the volunteers, all gender alike, can participate in the volunteer run, and it’s actually free too!
Nope! Some obstacles may have 2-3’ deep water but the majority are just mud. If you don’t feel comfortable, you can always go around the obstacle.
