Indian Mud Run obstacle races, mud run, and OCR information, distance, cost, dates, calendar, discounts, obstacles, reviews, and more
The Indian Mud run is a very challenging obstacle course race through beautiful hills alongside spectacular rock formations. The Indian Mud Run is an official Obstacle Course Racing World Championship qualifier with the top 5 in each age group men and women qualifying for age group divisions and the top 3 overall men and women qualifying for Pro division.
The 2017 race will feature Dewayne Montgomery “Coach Pain” as the start line motivator. New in 2017 the Indian Mud Run will offer 2 race lengths and a new start and finish line area. We also have a 3 lap option (20 miles-150 obstacles) and all 3 lap finishers earn an authentic American Indian made arrow upon completion.
The competitive waves will be 6 plus miles long with 50 plus obstacles. The non-competitive waves will be around a 5k length and offer close to 35 obstacles. The terrain is an obstacle itself and the course will challenge you with world class obstacles.
Some of the obstacles include 20’ cargo net climb, Swivel ladder climb, natural rock climb with ropes, steep hills, Net climb over ravine, Cliff climb on rope ladder, Log traverse, 165’ water slide, 20’ high climbing wall, mud pit and many more. The competitive course is mandatory obstacle completion with bands. The competitive course will have the above obstacles plus the weaver, Rig, walls, rappel, and end with the ¾ mile gauntlet of Skull valley, Irish table, Rope traverse, 40 foot monkey bars, Dragons back, Rope climb, Rig, Half pipe wall and slide into pond, Destroyer and Wall hanger. 4 of the gauntlet obstacles are signature obstacles from past Obstacle Course Racing World Championships and are used with permission from the obstacles owners.
The top 3 finishers in each 5 year age group will receive an authentic American Indian made Tomahawk but you must run in the competitive waves to be eligible for the Tomahawk. The top 15 in each age group will have their name on the back of the following year’s shirt. After the race you get a free can beer (not draft) and a free ride on our Blob pillow. Racers also get a cool medal, and a beautiful shirt. Shirts include the top 500 placers from the previous year’s race. We also have a separate kid’s course.
Our mission is to provide the best mud run possible. We strive to have the best course, a great shirt, a cool finisher’s medal, fun post-race entertainment and good food all at a fair price. We have an awesome course with spectacular rock formations, great views, super obstacles and easy access with a 4 lane highway less than a quarter mile away. Some of our best obstacles are very spectator friendly so bring a camera, some friends and a big smile.

Best of the best
I will say it again, if I travel for only one race during the year, it’ll always be this one. Extraordinary use of natural obstacles, coupled with a small hometown race feel and several challenging rigs throughout. This team keeps giving the race community exactly what it likes. If you haven’t put this one on your schedule, do it now. You won’t be sorry. Hats off to Hubie, Alyssa, BOTL guys, and their team for putting it all together. Will be back for more next year!
Challenging, amazing, well organized, affordable, the list goes on and on! I will be back next year!
Great Race
Best prep for a championship race! All the feel of your local OCR with the competitiveness of a World Class field. Obstacles and builds are leading the game!
4th year running Indian Mud Run and I’ll be back for a 5th. I don’t do OCRs anymore but this I won’t miss. This Mountain Biker and Gravel Grinder can still lace up her her trail shoes and swing on Indian heads and not touch dirt till she rings that bell. Hubie and his crew put their heart and soul in this event and it shows. It’s not just a race, it’s a OCR family reunion, everyone is happy to see you and cheers you on. People come from all over. The terrain and obstacles are like no other, it’s amazing the elevation Hubie manages to find, this is the ultimate race, it’s an amusement park of obstacles and you may find a breaking point but you’ll cross the finish line with a smile. Indian Mud Run IS the king of Obstacle Course Racing and you can’t change my mind
This is my new must-do race. I've run many local races, and IMR blows every one of them out of the water. This has something for everyone. Technical terrain, tough but manageable obstacles, hard climbs, and an amazing community. Hubie and his crew go above and beyond to create a great race experience. I will be back year after year.
A better life
Better life

At deer creek this has changed my life.
Great Experience! Amazing Race
What an amazing venue and race. The course is essentially built into the natural surroundings, with some man-made obstacles thrown in. Climbing, swimming, hanging, jumping, clinging, swinging.. you name it, this race has it. We have people come to our OCR course to get ready for this race specifically -- we do our best, but we have a long way to go to match the thrill/challenge of being on the Indian Mud Run course. Very glad I was able to finally make it out, and I WILL be returning as often as possible. Thanks for a great experience!
I believe this may be the best race I have ever raced! Great people that make this race happen. Great group of people that run this race. Coach Pain for the start line motivation will keep you running even after the race is over. This is a bucket list race!!
This is an amazing race. I had so many emotions at this race. It is not for the faint of heart. I am scared of heights, so a few of the cliff climbs really got to me. After I cried a bit, I moved on and had a blast! The huge slide was so much fun. If you loveOCR, this is a must do race!!!
Awesome race!
This was my second time at IMR and it was even better than the first. Choose was well marked and challenging and the obstacles were insane. Love the variety and challenge. Also love they offer the 3 lap chief's challenge. Coach Pain getting.everyone fired up before the start is awesome too. Great race, awesome volunteers and ask around good time. Can't wait to see what they do next year. If you like ocr, you should check out this race.
