Tough Mudder Event at Northstar California Resort

Tough Mudder Event at Northstar California Resort coming this July 13-14, 2013 and again September 28-29, 2013. Do you have what it takes?

Tough Mudder is coming to Northstar California Resort this summer and fall! This popular event is not only exciting to watch, but has raised more than $5 million dollars to-date for the Wound Warrior Project. The slogan “Probably the Toughest Event on the Planet” doesn’t quite describe this grueling 12-mile obstacle course. Designed by British Special Forces, the innovative course is test of strength, stamina, mental grit, and team camaraderie.

Spectators can watch participates go through a variety of obstacles, starting with the Braveheart Charge, which marks the start of every Tough Mudder obstacle course. The Arctic Enema requires participants to dive in a frigid ice water dumpster, and the Boa Constrictor is a series of pipes that must be crawled through despite the freezing mud and slippery slopes. Participants might be required to conquer a giant mountain of hale bales, a cargo net challenge called Devil’s Beard, a trench of kerosene soaked straw called the Fire Walker, or the balance, twist, and bend in the Log Bog Jog. Ultimately it is about overcoming the odds as participants complete each obstacle with pure will and determination.

Spectators of all ages are welcome and the ticket cost is only $20 (50% off!) if you buy ahead of time, or $40 if you buy the day of the event. Children 10 and under are free. Or, sign up as a volunteer and get in for free. Spectators are given a course map at the event which allows them to take special routes to each obstacle and avoid walking the entire 12-mile course. The Tough Mudder event isn’t completely serious though, participants and spectators are also asked to bring their sense of humor and get ready for the after party celebration with drinks, a live band, and a lot of celebrating!
