let's play together

Remember when you were a kid and you used to run around outside with your friends climbing trees, jumping in puddles, playing tag, and just plain having fun? Well Rugged Maniac is simply an adult version of that! We build 25+ epic obstacles for you and your friends to play on (like fire jumps, water slides, trampolines, and underground tunnels), put them in a 3-mile course, and then throw a crazy party with plenty of beer and music! 

we're more than just a mud run

Before and after you tackle the course, you’ll get to party with thousands of other Maniacs in our day-long festival where you can ride mechanical bulls, challenge friends to pie-eating and stein-hoisting contests, and dance your butt off to the DJ on the main stage. As if that weren’t awesome enough, you get our fresh 2023 Rugged Maniac shirt, an epic finishers medal, and a free beer (if of age) with your registration!
