‘Your First Mud Run’ is holding two events in New Jersey soon
Looking to have a fun time for a good cause? Your First Mud Run is the event for you, and there will be two races held in the Garden State in the upcoming weeks.
YFMR claims to be the only mud run in the U.S. designed so both parents and children can run together. The courses are between one and a half to two miles long and include 13+ obstacles that are designed for adults and kids ages five and up.
Your First Mud Run started back in 2011, when founder, Brad Vaccaro created the race to not only have a fun obstacle challenge, but to help the communities where the events take place. They've since had over 50 races.
