York Pretty Muddy 5k
The event is a Pretty Muddy 5k obstacle course at The Knavesmire, York Racecourse. The route combines grass, surfaced paths and trail sections. The event site and the start and finish are on grass, which is predominantly flat but includes some uphill and downhill gradients. An accessible route is available if required, though the nature of Pretty Muddy means the event is not wheelchair accessible for course participation.
Wave starts are used, with each wave beginning every 15 minutes to manage numbers on the course. Participants climb, crawl and slide around a series of obstacles and can skip obstacles if needed with assistance from marshals.
Age and ticketing details note a minimum participant age of 13 for the Pretty Muddy course. Child entry information states children must be registered and accompanied by a parent or guardian. Adult and child ticket prices are listed for the event, and there is a stated minimum fundraising target of £50.
Facilities on site include refreshments, toilets and parking. Blue Badge parking is available within the Knavesmire and involves a short walk on grass. Dogs are not allowed, bag drop and showers are not available, and the site is not suitable for pushchairs. Registered participants receive event information, a fundraising pack, a customisable back sign, training support and a finishing medal.
