29th July, 2024: For the first time ever, World’s Toughest Mudder, will be descending on European shores, as the pinnacle of obstacle course events debuts in the UK. Coming from its usual location in the U.S., this event is not for the faint of heart. It is the most extreme, imposing, pulse-pounding, heart-stopping 24-hour obstacle course challenge on the planet. Breaking away from conventional mass participation events, Tough Mudder is the undisputed leader in extreme obstacle course races. With a host of events all over the UK for all ages over a variety of distances, nothing comes close to the World’s Toughest Mudder - an event that promises to redefine the boundaries of endurance, unleashing a challenge that will leave participants questioning and shattering their limits.
Thanks to a steady growth in the Tough Mudder brand and a renewed excitement for large scale obstacle events, the bucket list challenge will be coming to Belvoir Castle, Grantham - home of the Tough Mudder Midlands - on the 28th and 29th June 2025. With some old favourites alongside yet to be seen, brand new obstacles, participants will run continuous loops of an electrifying course, either as individuals or as part of a team. Whoever completes the most laps across a variety of categories will walk away with a handsome cash prize.
Places are expected to go quickly as Mudders from all over the world descend on the region. Located within easy reach of Nottingham, Birmingham, and London, Belvoir Castle has been a regular in the Tough Mudder calendar and keeps people coming back thanks to the majestic backdrops and rolling hills that provide a gruelling yet gratifying canvas for glory. Going above and beyond what’s been done before, World’s Toughest Mudder is unlike anything entrants will have experienced before with a fully functioning event crew village that includes pits, food trucks, music, event announcers and a full race centre - all designed to keep participants going, through 24 hours of intense physical demand.
Matthew Brooke, Managing Director of Tough Mudder, expressed his excitement, stating, "World’s Toughest Mudder is the peak of OCR.
