Muddy Dash - Charlotte, NC
Muddy Dash Charlotte takes place at Porter Farms in Charlotte, North Carolina on July 18, 2026. The event centers on a roughly 5K mud run course that includes obstacles, mud pits, slides, and about a dozen "Muddy Moments" that require participants to run, walk, crawl, wade, slip or slide. Mud pits are described as no deeper than waist-deep. Timing and competition are not a focus, and costumes are permitted. The event is family-friendly and welcomes kids subject to event rules.
The day includes on-course activities plus a pre-party and an after-party at the finish line with a DJ, music, dancing, food trucks, beer and cold drinks. Packet pick up is available the day before at Porter Farms; a fee may apply for packet retrieval on race day if prior pickup is not completed. Bag check is offered at the event for a $5 fee. Parking at the venue may require cash and can include a charge of up to $20 collected by the site.
Registration offers a range of options from a value package to a VIP experience. The standard package lists a race bib, finisher medal and post-race party access; the VIP package lists VIP check-in and items such as an event tour T-shirt, towel, drawstring bag, sunglasses, a tattoo and a silicone wristband. The event describes a Buy One & Give One program where a registration purchase can trigger a donated free registration for a local community member; partner organizations are named as examples in event materials.
