Miss Muddy

Overview

Ladies, prepare to spend 5 glorious kilometres running through mud, being shot at by foam cannons, getting coated in colour and conquering obstacles at Miss Muddy. Since launching in March 2014, the female-only event has happened ten times. And on Saturday, September 26, its 11th incarnation is heading for Penrith Regatta Centre. Six thousand or so participants are expected.

Miss Muddy's goal is to bring you a fun, fun, fun, judgement-free day out, while raising money for charity. To enter, you simply need to register online and then turn up on the day, ready to run, crawl, slip and slide your way to the finish line. The event is not about winning or proving your physical prowess, but about doing something different, getting active and catching up with friends, without giving a damn what anyone else thinks.

While you're at it, you're encouraged to use the opportunity to raise money for a charity of your own choosing.

"The Miss Muddy obstacle event attracts a wide variety of women from a wide range of fitness levels. We even have participants who are wheelchair bound and blind participating in the event, which is great to see," said Miss Muddy owner Adam McDonald.
