Take the Mud Run Challenge
If you’re looking for a fun-filled sporting event involving a muddy obstacle course, then the Get Fit Tulsa Mud Run 2008 can fulfill your quest for an action-packed weekend.
This ground-breaking Mayor’s Fitness Challenge event will be held Saturday, August 23 at the Mohawk Park Shelter 6. The race begins at 5 p.m. – participants must be age 18 years or older.
During the mud extravaganza, individuals and teams of two or five members will be tested in their endurance as they run, walk, or crawl through mud pits, cross over railroad ties, climb walls, and much more.
For entry fees and online registration, visit www.active.com. You can also register at Runners World – 4329 S. Peoria. Registration will be from August 18 – 22, 2008. Race day registration begins at 4 p.m. Proceeds from the Get Fit Tulsa Mud Run, Tulsa’s first-ever mud run, will benefit local community charities and the Tulsa Fire Burn Camp.
Since this is Tulsa’s first Mud Run, I found video of Dallas/Fort Worth’s Mud Run on YouTube:
