Summit to Swamp Obstacle Mud Run FRIENDS & FAMILY DAY @ Summit to Swamp
Apr 24 @ 10:00 am – 10:15 am

Our Summit to Swamp Obstacle Mud Run is FREE this year. Come for the day. Bring your family and friends. Bring something for a potluck if you like. Enjoy a bonfire and music. Make new friends.

Let’s kickstart an AWESOME 2021 together!

A fun and challenging obstacle mud run from the rocky peaks to the swampy flats.
Something for everyone…..beginner to competitor!
2021 registration is FREE! Come spend time with old friends and make some new!
The Summit To Swamp mud run has many natural and man-made obstacles over a scenic course in the foothills of the Big Bottom Valley. The trek to the summit gains over 400 feet of elevation in less than a 1/4 mile. The flat land is full of fun (and dirty) obstacles.
This run is designed to be a test of grit for those who want it, yet fun for the whole family. Most obstacles can be bypassed in some way for those who are not ready to meet that challenge.
Family or Individual…..Beginner or Competitor…..There is something for everyone!
