Get ready, Pensacola! The much-anticipated Muddy Dash is just around the corner, and it’s set to bring a splash of fun and excitement to the area. Scheduled for May 9, 2026, this event is perfect for anyone looking to enjoy a day filled with mud, laughter, and community spirit. Participants can choose between two registration options: the Value Registration and the VIP Registration. The Value Registration includes a race bib, finisher medal, and access to the post-race party. However, the VIP Registration—the most popular choice—offers all the perks of the Value Registration plus some fantastic extras like VIP check-in, a Muddy Dash 2026 Tour T-shirt, a towel, a drawstring bag, sunglasses, a VIP tattoo, and a silicone wristband.
But that’s not all! The Muddy Dash community is committed to giving back. Through their Buy One & Give One Program, for every registration, a free spot is donated to someone in need within the community. The event collaborates with various partner organizations, including Save the Children, UNICEF USA, and Make-A-Wish, among others. This initiative ensures that everyone gets a chance to participate and enjoy the day!
Event Details
Before you dive into the mud, make sure to pick up your race packet on May 8, from 4 PM to 8 PM at Adventure Unlimited, located at 8974 Tomahawk Landing Rd, Milton, FL 32570. Keep in mind that if you miss this, there will be a $5 fee for packet pickup on race day. As for parking, expect a fee of up to $20, and remember that some venues may not accept cash, so it’s best to come prepared with a card.
The Muddy Dash course promises to be an adventure like no other, featuring several miles of fun with about a dozen “Muddy Moments” that will have you running, walking, crawling, wading, and sliding through mud pits that are no deeper than waist-high. The best part? There’s no competitive pressure, so you can take your time and enjoy the experience!
Team Spirit and More
Gather your friends and register as a team! The team captain can create the team, and others can join during registration. Spectators are also welcome to cheer from the sidelines, with no fees attached, making it a great family-friendly event. After the race, participants can enjoy a festival area filled with sponsors, food, music, and competitions—perfect for winding down after a muddy day.
Don’t forget that early waves fill up quickly, so it’s wise to register ahead of time, especially if you want to be part of a team! And for those looking to get involved behind the scenes, there’s also an opportunity to sign up as a volunteer.
So, mark your calendars and get ready for a day of fun, camaraderie, and community support. For more information about the event, visit the official Muddy Dash website. We can’t wait to see you there!
