Muddy Dash - San Diego, CA

Muddy Dash takes place at Bates Nut Farm in Valley Center, California. The event features a course spanning a few miles that incorporates approximately twelve different stations. Participants encounter various obstacles that require running, walking, crawling, wading, or sliding to progress through the route.

The course includes multiple mud pits designed to be no deeper than waist-high, ensuring that no swimming is required. This is a non-timed, non-competitive event focused on the experience of navigating the mud-filled course. Costumes are permitted for all participants.

Standard registration provides a race bib and a finisher medal upon completion. Attendees have access to a post-race party held at the venue. A VIP registration tier offers additional items such as a tour t-shirt, towel, drawstring bag, sunglasses, and a wristband.

The event operates a community program where every registration purchased results in a donated entry for local community members. The venue offers a festival area where spectators can watch the event at no charge.

Participants can collect their event packets at the venue the day before the race. Those who choose to pick up their packets on the day of the event will be subject to a cash fee. On-site gear storage is available for a fee, and the venue may charge for parking. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
