Get ready to dive headfirst into a world of messy fun at the Muddy Dash - Vegas, taking place on April 11, 2026, in scenic Boulder City, NV, at Bootleg Canyon. This isn't just a 5K race; it's an exhilarating adventure where participants tackle "a few miles" of unadulterated mud and a variety of creative obstacles designed to challenge and entertain. Expect to run, walk, crawl, wade, slip, and slide through a course packed with "about a dozen Muddy Moments," including walls, ropes, monkey bars, and mud pits that won't exceed waist-deep. Typical race day conditions in April offer ideal weather, with comfortable highs around 79°F and lows near 56°F, and virtually no chance of rain, ensuring a perfect day for getting gloriously filthy.

The Muddy Dash distinguishes itself by focusing squarely on fun and camaraderie over competition, making it an ideal experience for everyone from seasoned obstacle course enthusiasts to first-time mud runners and families with children aged 7 and up. Aid stations offering water are strategically placed along the course, including one halfway point and another at the finish line, though participants might consider bringing their own energy supplements. Cross the finish line not only with a well-deserved finisher medal and ultimate bragging rights but also with the unique opportunity to be "blasted by foam cannons" for a preliminary rinse. The excitement continues with a lively post-race celebration featuring music, food, and beverage vendors, providing the perfect atmosphere to recount your muddy escapades with friends and family. Spectators are welcome free of charge to cheer on their favorite muddy warriors from the sidelines.
