Mudder's Day Madness Mud Run

Mudder's Day Madness is an obstacle mud run held at Montvale Springs. The event was first held the day before Mother’s Day in 2013 and the next scheduled Mud Run is on May 8, 2027.

The main course is a marked rolling trail that includes over twenty different obstacles and a dip in the lake. Named obstacles include Adversity Hill, the Tire Traverse, and the A-Frame Climb. Runners aged 8 and older may race individually or with a team. Costumes are encouraged and the most creative costumes may receive an award.

In addition to the main course, there is a Fun Run for children and others aged 4 and older. The Fun Run follows shortly after the 5K, is a bit over one mile long, and includes several obstacles.

Vendors, music, and refreshments are onsite for participants and for their friends and families. Funds raised by the event support Harmony Family Center’s therapeutic programming at Montvale Springs, including equine therapy and therapeutic camps for foster and adoptive children and families.
