Choose your Challenge

On the Rugged Maniac course, you can choose your own difficulty, whether that’s traversing over every obstacle as fast as you can or skipping obstacles when you need to. Victory awaits at the finish line no matter what!

Muddy Back Guarantee

If you’re not covered in mud at the finish line, you can muddy back on through the course. The Muddy Back Guarantee is our way of making sure you get muddier than any Rugged Maniac event you’ve ever attended! Just let our staff know and you’ll be automatically upgraded to Rugged Maniac X on race day (meaning you can run the event again, and track through even more mud!)
