Every
year in September the Greater Columbia
Marine Foundation hosts the largest Mud Run
in North America. The race attracts
thousands of people from all over the
Southeast and beyond. The Ultimate Challenge
Mud Run is over 4.2 miles, and has 30
obstacles that have to be crossed by each
team requiring team work and a lot of
determination. The 4.2 mile course is an
all-terrain race conducted on dirt roads,
improved and unimproved trails through the
training area. These trails include mud
holes, walls, trenches and other obstacles
that require swimming, crawling, climbing
and jumping. Some people come to compete,
but many come just to complete! The 2010
Ultimate Challenge Mud Run reached event
capacity 3 weeks prior to the event with
over 14,000 participants.
THIS WAS OFFICIALLY THE LARGEST MUD RUN IN NORTH AMERICA The Columbia Chapter of the SCPBA was proud to have a few members to participate in the event. Congratulations to Brian Hudak, Robert Allman, Eric Walker and Gerald Hutto for their involvement!
