Tough Mudder Chicago: Top 5 Things To Do

 Mudder Nation is coming to Chicago. Get the best of nature and city life with these side adventures. These are the Tough Mudder recommended Chicago things to do.

5 Top Chicago Things To Do

  1. Hike At Blackhawk Springs Forest Preserve

Just 15 minutes from Rockford Airport, where you’ll be tearing it up in the mud, lies the Blackhawk Springs Forest Preserve. This beginner-friendly trailhead is the ideal low-impact activity that gets you outside and refreshed after a tough mud day. 

  1. Take a Chicago Food Tour

Secret Food Tours is the tasty hidden gem that takes you into the heart of Chicago cuisine. You know you’ve got to get a slice of deep-dish pizza – why not take it further with everything the city has to offer? 

  1. Catch a Ball Game

Stick around for a rousing Cubs game at historic Wrigley Field, or see the White Sox play down at Rate Field. Score your tickets for the Cubs or White Sox now and enjoy your afternoon with brews, brats, and America’s favorite pastime.

  1. Kayak on the Chicago River

That’s right – look no further than downtown Chicago for a day on the water with Wateriders. You can’t beat a crowd-free moment while getting up close and personal with Chicago’s historic architecture. 

  1. Take A Stroll In Lincoln Park

Lincoln Park’s sprawling campus is so lush you won’t believe you’re in the city. Within its parameters are two museums, a free public zoo, plenty of public art and monuments, the national arboretum, recreational fields and so much more.

Let’s get wild – Tough Mudder will be here before you know on August 27th & 28th, so book your spot before the event sells out.
