Volunteer registration will open in early 2012.

What is it:

You and a partner alternate between trail running and some easy mountain biking. You switch riding / running at a series of challenges on course. Past challenge examples are a ladder climb, run a set of tires, knock down some cans or a puzzle. You don't have to wait for your partner at each challenge, you have to wait for the bike you share. If you run the first leg, at the first challenge you will need to wait for your partner to get there on the bike, then you would do the second leg biking. And so forth at each challenge. The final challenge at the finish line will be our wall and slide, and of course the MUD pit, you have to do these challenges together before crossing the finish line. Everyone gets a prize, it's all random, some are small and some are large and it doesn't matter how fast you are. We do have special prizes for the top winners, and draw prizes at our post race party!

Rules:

To keep it fair and fun we have a few rules for you to follow.
  • Both teammates must complete the whole course and finish together at the finish line. They must also switch racing disciplines at each Mystery Event – bike then run and run then bike.
  • It is mandatory that when you are riding your bike you are wearing your helmet. Failure to do so will be an instant disqualification.
  • Some items that will cause instant disqualifications – swearing and rude behaviour towards another racer or MudRunRide crew, littering, going off course, and not obeying the rules of the road.
  • If your bike breaks down, you may continue but in the riding stages you must run with your bike.
  • For everyone's safety, there is no outside support allowed on course.
  • You must switch the racing discipline at each Mystery Challenge (if you were running you are now riding and visa versa).

Course:

The course will be approximately 10km, meaning you and your partner will probably each run 5km and each bike 5km. The course will consist of beginner-to-intermediate level running and biking trails.

Packet Pickup:

Date and location TBA. To make things smoother, print out and sign the liability and medical waivers below.

Refunds / Force Majeure:

There are no refunds. This may sound hard, but our top priority is to create an enjoyable and safe race for everyone involved. To put on this type if event does create expenses that are constant no matter who races and volunteers. In Case of Weather or Act of "God" the event goes on the day scheduled, rain, shine, hail, tornado, etc.
