HOSTED BY:
TOP-TIER TOUGH
World’s Toughest Mudder is the most extreme, imposing, pulse-pounding, heart-stopping 24-hour obstacle course challenge on the planet.
The stage is set and the stakes have never been higher. Pick your podium, make the commitment and begin your training. The swampy shoe-sucking mud of the Sunshine State awaits.
Pro Tip: Pack your gaiters (and watch out for gators).
OBSTACLES
Arctic Enema
Take a dunk in this 34 degree ice pit. Glass will never be safe again.
Cage Crawl
Pulling yourself along a 48′ pit of water with 4″ to breathe might not make you panic, but it will definitely make you pee at least a little bit.
Well Swung
Jump high, hang low, and let it all swing out on Tough Mudder’s take on the trapeze.

Have you ever had a day you felt you looked your worst, yet you had someone come up and compliment you? Found yourself surrounded by people who you 100% feel you relate to? Have you walked into a room filled with hundreds of people you dont know, but can strike up a conversation with any of them as if you`ve been friends for years? Have you been about to challenge yourself and do something crazy, and have thousands of people surrounding you telling you, you can do this, not asking you `why would you do that?`. That`s what Worlds Toughest Mudder feels like. I saw a post by someone saying if you go to WTM and cant run the full 24 hours you shouldn`t be there, needless to say this individual has never actually ran a WTM, because if he had he`d see and know, the all inclusive community of WTM. You have the elites, you have those sitting at obstacles all night to help others, and you have people pushing as hard as they can and that may only be for 16 hours. Or 8. Or 21. Worlds Toughest Mudder will take place in Dallas in 2020, and I think you should come. Plus it`s not a spartan, so don`t think your penalties will be burpees, I promise if you run OCR you can do their `must complete` obstacles (this year Everest penalty was the Mini Mudder course, headband included). So many people simply stay comfortable and don`t find their boundaries. Dont be one of those people. Leave the house before you find a reason to stay in. Register for WTM before you convince yourself of a reason not too. And don`t forget your wetsuit. .

As for my 2019 WTM, I still got a 40 mile training run in with a new great friend, got to ride in one those medical gators and get awkwardly naked in the med tent. #winning? Still a good enough time to return for round 3 in 2020. Who`s coming with?

Cold is probably my worst race condition, so being cold and wet all day for pit set up is not the most confidence inflating thing. 😂 Here`s to hoping we all make it 24 hours (further) injury free, help people find their best, and set personal bests. No cliche plug about this being hard blah blah blah, its worlds toughest mudder. It`s going to be hard. That`s the whole point. Kick some ass, make some noise and I`ll see ya`ll on the flip side. ❤💪

Its been roughly 730 days, 3300 miles ran between today and the last time I toed the start line of Worlds Toughest Mudder. There`s been so much covered in those 2 years that it feels like a lifetime. This race has always scared the crap out of me, those minutes when you`re in the starting coral and you`re facing this epic race of pretty monumental proportions. Knowing you`re going to be cold, hot, electrocuted, world reduced to a headlamp, beat up, mentally wore down, and for an entire day. It`s always made me feel so small in that moment. This year, I don`t quite feel that. Dont get me wrong, I`m wicked anxious for what can go wrong, but I`m focused on what will go right. I`m actually fairly confident in my abilities. For like the first time in my life, I`m confident I can do the mileage I have in my head & I`m looking forward to it. These races have a way of reminding you through every scrape, bruise and mile that you are alive. After all the crap of the last 2 years, we all need to be reminded just how that feels.
If you could send positive vibes to every single one of the competitors about to head out on course tomorrow for the next 25.5 hours, I would love it. To everyone out here about to give it your best, just hold on. When the event is over you either hurt because you gave it your all, or hurt because you quit, and the hurt from quitting will never disappear.
As someone who lives in a notoriously flat prairie state, don`t bet on me 😂, but I`ll give it my best shot. Working on living a life I won`t regret.🤘

It’s been four years since I ran my last World’s Toughest Mudder, and I haven’t stepped foot on a Tough Mudder course to compete since. Hell, it’s been well over a year since I’ve touched an obstacle race in general.
.
I acknowledge the part of me that whispers “You know, that was a good chapter in your life. Maybe you should just leave it as it was and not try and recreate the magic.” I acknowledge that there’s some ego involved in that. And I know that, in the past, ego has kept me away.
.
But louder than that voice of ego is the voice that tells me that World’s Toughest Mudder is home for me: it’s how this crazy athletic journey of mine started. And in this whirlwind last year of mine, more than anything, I’ve recognized the importance of home. Of connecting with my roots. And of the people who mean so much to me.
.
So I’m SO excited to return home this weekend for 24 hours of mud, freezing cold, super flattering pictures, and all the weird sht that happens along the way. Let’s go play. tough_mudder #worldstoughestmudder #wtm2019
I`ve been asked a lot if Im going to be at WTM this year, and that answer is no. I gave myself this year off from OCR because after WTM last year, my heart just wasn`t in it. So I`m hoping that by taking the year off, it will allow my head and heart to realign and to be able to put my heart and soul back into it. This year brought an entire upheaval of my life, and finding a new groove has been a bit of a challenge. But I`m feeling settled in, finding my new normal and starting to get that itch to be back out there, so probably, next year. But all ya`ll crazies enjoy those 25.5 hours of mud for me 🤘
I`m also starting to get that 200 miler thought in the back of my head 😅😳 anyone else?

This event lived up to the hype! From the start where we didn`t play the Nation Anthem...we sang it LOUD! It was awesome! All the way to the finish line with our hilariously delirious MC`s welcoming us back to safety.
Started strong, finished strong... but left a lot of room for improvement in the middle.
See you next year in Dallas worldstoughestmudder !

Can`t say enough amazing things about my friend herringjb pitting for myself, zackwiz1389 and Mark. I was telling Jen back in September that I didn`t have a pit yet for this year`s World`s Toughest Mudder and without hesitation she volunteered to help me out. I love my friends, this sport, and this community.

It’s been 6 years since I stood on a World’s Toughest Mudder podium. This weekend showed me that I can have big goals, fall short of those, and *still* be thrilled with the results. 85 miles, 340 obstacles, 2nd place woman: my heart is full.
I ran from a place of joy this weekend. It meant giving all the volunteers hugs on course. It meant stopping to thank everyone who gave me a hand over an obstacle. It meant having conversations with other competitors as we trudged through the sand in the middle of the night in the shared misery.
Honestly, there’s no other way I’d want to compete. I spent 10 years trying to find a happy place with racing, and I’ve arrived. I’ll always want to compete and have big goals, but I want to do that in a way that also fills my soul. Maybe I’ve lost that gear in me that says “compete and win at all costs” but I frankly don’t miss it - the collateral damage, both physical and mental, was too great. I like this place that I’m in.
Congrats to k80_knight who ran an absolutely flawless race - excited to see where your OCR career takes you! And to womazonian for hitting your 85 goal - I know how hard that last lap was. I’m so honored to share a podium with both of you.
I left everything out there and I’m proud to be a part of this World’s Toughest Mudder community who still welcomes me back with open arms every year. Congrats to all Mudders - be proud of what you accomplished, even if it didn’t go as planned (it never does 😉). See you next year in…Florida 😖😆
Thank you to TMHQ and kyle_toughmudder (it’s amazing to have a CEO that cares this much) for an epic race. To kedickmann and casifrass - the best pit crew ever! To all the volunteers, the Everest Angels and the Mudderhorn guys. And to my sponsors who have supported me through all of this - ultimatedirectionusa livehuman vengacbd bigspoonroasters

What a difference a year (and a decent shower) makes!
😂🙈
Throwback Thursday to last year‘s Toughest Mudder Midlands. And good luck to everyone racing TM Midlands and Philly this coming weekend. 💪🏻
Unfortunately I am not allowed to fly this close to my due date anymore otherwise I would have come out for some muddy hugs from my favorite muddy people.
🖤
Fun fact: I ran the 24h World‘s Toughest Mudder in Atlanta last year at 11 weeks pregnant. I really miss racing and rolling around in the mud, and I hope to be back for the 2020 season.

World`s Toughest Mudder 2022 Champion 🏆 105 miles 24:27:19
•
My body aches, my flesh is mangled, but my spirits are high. I knew one thing going into this race; for better or worse, I put the most thought into it out of anybody competing that day. I obsessed about it like nothing else before. After all the preparation, I told the people closest to me that I could win, that I WAS going to win. I signed up for 2022 just a few short days after my first attempt in 2021. As soon as I decided to register, I was all in. I began making my plans to move out of NY and chase the dream full time in Durango, CO at The UltraHouse. Thank you for the opportunity anthonykunkel.
•
This race seemed so much tougher than last year. The obstacles appeared more difficult, the temperatures were in the low 30s for most of the time, and you never got dry. NEVER. It rained at the start and as soon as it stopped, the water obstacles opened up and kept you eternally soaked to the bone. Slowing down and getting cold would become the end of your race very quickly. I told myself, "don`t forget you have a lifetime of those CNY winters under your belt. And you trained for the cold all year. You`re ready for anything the weather throws at you." I still have a numbness in the tips of my pinky fingers, but it seems to be fading slowly.
•
I also had the best team. My people back in NY. The best training partners all year (tagged) and everyone else who came to visit us at The UltraHouse. They truly helped push my running to another level this year. The best pit crew around in escobar_ocr and arrranxa. Javi has some of the most experience at WTM and helped bring all of this together on game day. Aran was there every time I came through to get me back out on course as quickly as possible. No mistakes in the pit with these 2 working together.
•
Speaking again of Aranxa... doing this whole thing with me over the past 5 years. Agreeing to run around this country with me as I chase this pipe dream when I wasn`t even a runner when we met. Well guess what, WE DID IT! Chase your dreams people. The alternative is never knowing..

W.T.M Vegas Training!💪 Worlds Toughest Mudder is only months away! Very excited to endure so much pain in one day hah. This obstacle course is 24 hours long. And to even place at this competition you have to achieve more than 50 miles of running and obstacles designed by British Special Forces. My team mate and brother jimmy_jo_jack have completed two tough mudders together so I know we`re gonna knock this one out with hard work oh and possibly instapic81 and johnnyv82 are gonna get recruited too. They just don`t know it yet! And best know my strength wraps will be on to support my wrist on every obstacle! strengthwraps follow them and check STRENGTHWRAPS.COM you can see me rocking there wraps in every video for one reason they are Amazin! #toughmudder #wtm #worldstoughestmudder #training #strengthwraps
Exactly 10 years ago, I ran my first Tough Mudder and it set my life off on a course I would have never expected. Over the past decade I’ve reached the height of obstacle racing, ran away from the sport, broken myself multiple times, fell in love with ultrarunning, and grown into a completely different person: mentally, emotionally, and physically.
Fitting with my 10 year anniversary, I got back out on a toughmudder course this weekend again for the first time in a few years, reuniting with people I love (swipe through to see the embarrassing beginnings in 2011 😬) and getting in some much needed obstacle practice.
While my obstacle technique has never been the prettiest, I now have the confidence and strength to get it done, and I’m excited to chase that one goal that has eluded me (and all women!) these past 10 years: hitting 100 miles at World’s Toughest Mudder. Who knows if it can be done, but you can bet I’m looking forward to giving it a go this November. 💃

RACE RESULTS!
This was a unforgettable experience… I never in my life thought I’d ever do something that pushed my limits the way I just did at The Worlds Toughest Mudder a 24 hour race!
As you can see on my race bib I ran for my brother Austin (that’s why I’m kissing my bib when I finished) that I lost a month ago but I didn’t only run for him I also ran for EVERY person dealing with mental health and this month just so happened to be Men’s Mental Health Month so I also wrote that on my bib. Austin was with me on every step of this race and I’m getting chills just thinking about it… Miss you brother and thank you for keeping me moving during those dark hours I wanted to quit🙏🏽
Race results:
Finished with 60 miles!!
Finished 2nd place in my age group
Finished 25th overall
I am so proud of my results for this being my first ever endurance race! Thank you toughmudder and a thank you to my running partners anyonecangetit_fitness and John! And a HUGE THANK YOU to my pit crew napualaniiii , my mom, and Gma cocas_photos for taking care of all our needs and staying up for the whole 24 hours with us!
More photos and videos will be posted soon! Also the YouTube video will drop soon too!

Awesome weekend camping with the OCR community, great banter, laughs and plenty of gin! 🍸
35k yesterday at Infinity in 3 hours but pain in the broken toe started to get too much so called it a day and watched my fellow friends smash out multiple laps. 👏
I say this all the time but 1993jessicakate never fails to surprise me. After 2 months off from running and only just finding her feet again she goes and smashes out 60k and finishing 🥇
ETM isn`t far away and Worlds Toughest Mudder is fast approaching so i need to be sensible and ready.

One week until I push myself harder than I ever have before.
One week until I get to spend 24+ hours trekking through the Alabama mud.
One week until I join up with Team jesistracham for what`s bound to be an incredible experience.
One week.

Pain is temporary. Pride is forever.
Full write up to follow, but 70 miles and 38th place at World’s Toughest Mudder. It could have been so much better, but I fought to the end and learned so much. A five hour last five mile lap was ‘interesting’… especially when I got to 50 miles in 10 hours 😂
Thank you to my supporters and teams below, the Mudder Nation community, TMHQ, MVPs, Team UK 🇬🇧, and most of all Mike and Charli who were my amazing pit crew 🙏
Thank you so much to those who donated to parkinsonsuk… £1400 raised so far, it really got me through that last lap. Still time to donate to this amazing cause 🙏
So much to tell, but put this race on your bucket list.

I keep this photo above my desk at work. It’s a snapshot of probably the most physically pained and exhausted I’ve ever been, on the tail end of running, crawling and swimming for 24hrs straight in sub-freezing temperatures and a lake nearly frozen over.
.
I keep it there to serve as a reminder of what I’m capable of - of enduring the pain, yes, but more importantly, of finding the sheer joy in these moments of being fully alive. It was through this race that I learned to live.
.
To everyone running tough_mudder World’s Toughest Mudder this weekend - trust that you can dig deeper than you ever imagined. Welcome the pain, and it will forever be your friend. #motivationmonday #worldstoughestmudder

Finish line photos!! This moment will be remembered. Having seancorvelle kyle_toughmudder and clintonpagejackson personally hand out my bib, medal, and hugs will be forever remembered.
Pushing through that last 25-30 miles at such a hobbling pace was one of the most mentally challenging things I’ve done. I chose not to care about the possibility of a true injury (😬🙄)because I refused to miss 50 miles again-I was too invested-I truly left it all out there.
A couple days later and my body feels great (it should, I wasn’t moving fast for half of it haha) and my knee is recovering 🤞— Pretty decent considering my run prep was five 3 mile runs. 🤦🏼♀️
HOWEVER, I am working on embracing the success rather than comparing it to others and considering the ‘what if’s’ and ‘lots of people get 50’ mindset.
Be happy for what you accomplished! That’s what I’m working on 🙂 🥂🎉💪

Welp, I made it to #wtm, but I will NOT be running the race I thought I would a week ago. New goal….Start lap and finish lap = 24 hour finisher.

I’ve always preferred the purity of heat. Even putting a number to it, say an 8 out of 10 for discomfort due to a slight shiver, lightly disorganized thought processes, and cold skin just cuts deeper than a 9 out of 10 due to sweating so hard my entire body is slippery and my consciousness is threatening to evaporate out of the back of my head.. perhaps it’s trauma from winters in Chicago? Or escaping high altitudes in afternoon storms? My brain jumps to a projection about how much worse it’ll be when I get any colder…
But these days, mindfully peeling back mental layers while being more cold acclimated than ever, I’m accepting that I need to update my prediction formulas.
The Dallas Tough Mudder Infinity tested a lot of what I’ve worked on, as well as things I figured training would’ve addressed. I was able to temper my new physical skills in a fire hotter than I anticipate Worlds to be.
I was the guinea pig out there since I was out front and the course got nearly annihilated by a storm the entire weekend:
-waterboarded into a panic by my first pass through #cagecrawl (I’m assuming the hashtag will have a pic, if not Google; the middle three fences were bowed into the water), hacked up dyed red water the rest of the day..
-hit Everest, Block Ness Monster, Mudderhorn, Mud Mile, and loads of walls, all solo and in inches of rain.. that first lap solo was a trial and I was grateful for the training I’ve put in to handle these camaraderie focused obstacles without help, through contortions, creativity, and some sneaky grip work (looking at you Block Ness)..
-failed a bit and spent a Lot of time at obstacles, unlike Seattle; I got into my head and told myself I NEED to complete each thing, expending a Ton of mental energy.. Still some obstacles proved too much for me, like Well Swung that got caked in slimy mud and I failed the last two despite making the jump and securing my hands, plunk -into the water backwards, head first… Spent the time considering the lanes on these fail-able obstacles, did the penalties, then took another crack at um.
Training event stuff, and still 6:12:XX for 60K. 4 cold, muddy laps of the classic 15K Mudder 📿…
