To enter click on ‘Register Now‘ button on any page that you see it.

You can enter as a team or an individual.

If you are entering as a TEAM the first person who enters can start the team and choose a team name and password. Let everyone know what the password is and then the other team members can join the team.

Don’t worry if you sign up as an individual and want to join a team that is fine and there will be NO CHARGE for joining a team or transferring to a team or turning an individual entry to a team entry.

Participant Information Guide

The Participant Info Guide will be emailed out in the week prior to the event, and also available on the Info page for your location.

Participant Wave Starts

Wave start times are set in the system and your team captain or an individual competitor can pick your desired wave start time. Each wave is limited in size and once a wave is full the system will no longer allow you to enter that wave. If you are wanting to enter an existing team and the wave is full don’t stress let us know and we will put you in with your team. We allow enough room to move late entries to your team in to your wave.

As the wave start time is selected by the team Captain on the first entry form it is up to teams to make sure they are happy with the selected wave start time indicated.

If you decide you want to change your wave start time get in contact with Mud Muster HQ early so we can sort it before the desired wave start time you want is fully booked.

Make sure you “Like” the Mud Muster Facebook page to keep up to date on all things Mud Muster.

Dress Up Dress Down – get some costumes together with your team or wear your hard-core training gear. It’s no walk in the park! You will get dirty, filthy and downright pretty messed up you may have close calls with rocks, burrs, thistles and maybe even wild animals along with barbed wire! If you wear your best threads then expect them to be pretty crap at the end!

This is serious stuff – Everyone must wear enclosed shoes on event day. So wear practical footwear you can attempt it in high heal sandals, sneakers or shoes but you will have to complete the whole course in what you start as we cannot let anyone run without fully enclosed footwear.

What time to get there?

Aim to arrive a minimum of 1 hour prior to their wave start time. The participants pack includes your wristband which is your ticket on to the course. The participant email we send out during event week will have your registration arrival time included for your wave.

For more info on registration or other stuff go to the Info or FAQ page.

Pre Event Training

​For those not wanting to just show up and scrape through on the day why not get down to any local Gym and tell them about Mud Muster – get them to guide you and also get a Gym Team together.

Hybrid Athlete and Race Day Domination have created a beginners guide to obstacle racing which includes training tips and fueling guidelines. To view the guide – click here!

​Race Day Domination also has a training blog that features workouts and obstacle mud run advice. Click here to visit their site! so you are as prepared as you can be. If you attend another gym or are from another town just get down to the gym and get stuck into some solid cross training.

Safety on Race Day

Safety for all participants, family, friends, staff, spectators and volunteers is our top priority. First aid will be on-site before during and after the event at the venue.

READ THIS!
