The 8Mile Mud Cross Obstacle Race will burst onto the scene on the 1st October 2016 and will immediately spearheaded the meteoric rise of obstacle racing in the Northern Cape and Free State. It will remain at the forefront of the growth spurt in the sport of obstacle racing with its larger than life obstacles and innovative courses to challenge athletes.
One of the reasons why obstacle racing is so popular, is because anyone can participate. All you need is a pair of old running shoes and a great sense for adventure and humour. What makes obstacle racing unique is that it is one of only a few opportunities for athletes from different sporting codes, like cycling, trail running, road running, cross fit, karate, judo, rugby, soccer, hockey, etc. get to compete against each other on a level playing field.
What makes this recipe of mud and obstacles so successful is the constant boundary pushing innovation by the organization team behind the event.
Listening to the throngs of smiling participants it is the infamous Mud Monster and the Tower of Rage that usually stand out for most.
The Mud Mile is usually a 100m stretch of mud riddled with 3m humps and 3m dips athletes have to navigate and the Tower of Wrath is a 8m platform athletes need to jump off into a pool of water.
The 8Mile Mud Cross Obstacle Race will certainly strike a chord with the outdoor minded and that sense of accomplishment mixed with team building fun.
