Grab a buddy and form your own Muck Squad for Reno River Festival’s inaugural Run Amuck competition. The race will start and finish in the middle of the festival, so you’re sure to be seen by everyone and their mother (unless she’s running amuck as well). Contestants will be going from Wingfield Park to Idlewild Park, where you'll get to “low crawl” through a 60-foot mud pit and continue on through other surprise obstacles throughout the 2.5-mile course.Write Comment (0 Comments) |
