The 8th Annual Mad Mountain Mud Run takes place Saturday, June 1 at Berkeley Park in Hendersonville, with all event proceeds benefiting Hands On! Children’s Museum.
Joseph Knight, the museum’s executive director, says, “We are so excited to host the 8th Annual 2019 Mad Mountain Mud Run. All proceeds from this fundraising event support the museum, which allows us to serve approximately 40,000 people annually. At the completion of the race, we have the Mud Run Festival—a FREE event open to the public that features food, craft beer, and live music.”
New to the Mud Run this year is a small kid’s zone which will feature face painting, a bounce house, and shaved ice from Pelican’s SnoBalls.
The event is a 3-plus mile race filled with muddy obstacles. This year participants can choose their challenge. Registration for the 8th Annual Mad Mountain Mud Run is now closed, but you can still come on out and cheer on the participants!
