About the Event

ONE MISSION. FIVE TEAMMATES. FINISH TOGETHER.

Think you’ve got the grit? Grab five teammates and take on the East Fork Ember Foundation Mud Run! This isn’t an individual race—it’s a team challenge from the first obstacle to the finish line.

Teams of 5 start together. Teams of 5 finish together.

Run it. Climb it. Crawl it. Get muddy. Help each other through every obstacle, because your team only qualifies when all five teammates cross the finish line together.

About Genoa

Learn more about the host city, Genoa.

Genoa is a historic port city in northern Italy, the capital of the Liguria region. As a tourist attraction, it is often overshadowed by cities such as Rome or Venice, even though it has a long history as a rich and powerful trade centre. However, with its multitude of hidden gems behind cozy alleyways, excellent cuisine, renovated old port, beautiful sights, and its position as the European Capital of Culture in 2004, the birthplace of explorer Christopher Columbus is an enticing place which is gradually becoming more included in the tourism market. With its profusion of slate-roofed houses, lovely seaside villas, and several luxurious boutiques, Genoa is a must-see if you want to experience the quintessential Italy.
