About the race
Mudmania is a purpose-built, short obstacle course of approximately 1.5 km at Waipu Caves Farm Park. The course includes mud ponds, water ponds, slippery slopes, log obstacles, nets and commando-crawl sections. The layout is designed for laps so participants can repeat the circuit to suit their own challenge. Children aged 5 to 12 must participate with a parent or adult and are limited to a single lap.
Entries are limited to 300 participants and the fee is the same no matter how many laps a person completes. Ticket prices are listed by age group: adults 20 years and over, teenagers 13 to 19 years, children 5 to 12 years, and a spectator fee for those over 5 years. Event operations include on-site parking with attendants, registration and waiver signing, an event briefing, and staggered starts released in small groups to reduce congestion at obstacles. Food stalls and nearby facilities are available during the event.
First-aid personnel will be on site for minor injuries; formal ambulance services are not on site. Course construction notes mention multiple ponds, slopes and tunnels and a new access road for food trucks. Additional information is to be released as the organisers finalise details.
