Please visit the Travel Routes page for detailed instructions. How muddy is it, really? Our course is designed to minimize impact on clamming fields on the ocean floor. There is still lots of mud, barnacles, sand and rocks. For those who haven’t developed mud techniques, try to keep your weight forward on your toes. Running in mud is a unique experience and getting your hands (or feet) dirty is part of the fun! Although many of our participants choose to leave their muddy running shoes behind, it is completely possible to clean your shoes by bagging them while wet at the course, then soaking them in a bucket of warm water when you get home! Do I have any chance of making a personal best time?
